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

Density functionals are often used in ab initio thermochemistry to provide optimized geometries for single-point evaluations at a high level and to supply estimates of anharmonic zero-point energies (ZPEs). Their use is motivated by relatively high accuracy at a modest computational expense, but a thorough assessment of geometry-related error seems to be lacking. We have benchmarked 53 density functionals, focusing on approximations of the first four rungs and on relatively small basis sets for computational efficiency. Optimized geometries of 279 neutral first-row molecules (H, C, N, O, F) are judged by energy penalties relative to the best available geometries, using the composite model ATOMIC/B
