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

Solvation has profound effects on the behaviour of supramolecular systems, but the effects can be difficult to predict even at a qualitative level. Functional group interaction profiles (FGIPs) provide a simple visual method for understanding how solvent affects the free energy contribution due to a single point interaction, such as a hydrogen bond, between two solute functional groups. A generalised theoretical approach has been developed, which allows calculation of FGIPs for any solvent or solvent mixture, and FGIPs for 300 different solvents have been produced, providing a comprehensive description of solvent effects on non-covalent chemistry. The free energy calculations have been validated using experimental measurements of association constants for hydrogen bonded complexes in multiple solvent mixtures. The calculated FGIPs provide good descriptions of the solvation of polar solutes, solvophobic interactions between non-polar solutes in polar solvents like water, and preferential solvation in solvent mixtures. Applications are explored of the use of FGIPs in drug design, for optimising receptor-ligand interactions, and in enantioselective catalysis for solvent selection to optimise selectivity.
