1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Hydrophobicity is a phenomenon of great importance in biology, chemistry, and biochemistry. It is defined as the interaction between nonpolar molecules or groups in water and their low solubility. Hydrophobic interactions affect many processes in water, for example, complexation, surfactant aggregation, and coagulation. These interactions play a pivotal role in the formation and stability of proteins or biological membranes. In the present study, we assessed the effect of ionic strength, solute size, and shape on hydrophobic interactions between pairs of nonpolar particles. Pairs of methane, neopentane, adamantane, fullerene, ethane, propane, butane, hexane, octane, and decane were simulated by molecular dynamics in AMBER 16.0 force field. As a solvent, TIP3P and TIP4PEW water models were used. Potential of mean force (PMF) plots of these dimers were determined at four values of ionic strength, 0, 0.04, 0.08, and 0.40 mol/dm
