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

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are an emerging class of green solvents with a wide spectrum of potential applications whose properties may be further tailored through the addition of water. Here, we study, through molecular dynamics, the influence of water on the properties of a betaine-glycerol-water (B:G:W) DES (1:2:ζ; ζ = 0 to 100), aiming at getting insight into the structural and dynamic crossover between a DES and an aqueous solution. The density, shear viscosity, and diffusion coefficients are found to exhibit a non-linear dependence of ζ, similar to that observed for the solvation layers' composition. Each Gly and Bet are replaced, respectively, by ∼3 and ∼5 water molecules, with the highest rates of depletion being found for Gly around Bet and Gly around Gly. Above ζ = 7 (70 mol %; 29.5 wt %), a major structural transformation occurs, with the complete disruption of the second Bet-Gly solvation layer and the formation of a new second layer at a shorter distance, accompanied by a sudden change in the rate of increase of the components' diffusion. Nonetheless, opposite to other DES, our results indicate a smooth crossover between a DES and an aqueous solution.
