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

Tropolone, a 15-atom cyclic molecule, has received much interest both experimentally and theoretically due to its H-transfer tunneling dynamics. An accurate theoretical description is challenging owing to the need to develop a high-level potential energy surface (PES) and then to simulate quantum-mechanical tunneling on this PES in full dimensionality. Here, we tackle both aspects of this challenge and make detailed comparisons with experiments for numerous isotopomers. The PES, of near CCSD(T)-quality, is obtained using a Δ-machine learning approach starting from a pre-existing low-level DFT PES and corrected by a small number of approximate CCSD(T) energies obtained using the fragmentation-based molecular tailoring approach. The resulting PES is benchmarked against DF-FNO-CCSD(T) and CCSD(T)-F12 calculations. Ring-polymer instanton calculations of the splittings, obtained with the Δ-corrected PES are in good agreement with previously reported experiments and a significant improvement over those obtained using the low-level DFT PES. The instanton path includes heavy-atom tunneling effects and cuts the corner, thereby avoiding passing through the conventional saddle-point transition state. This is in contradistinction with typical approaches based on the minimum-energy reaction path. Finally, the subtle changes in the splittings for some of the heavy-atom isotopomers seen experimentally are reproduced and explained.
