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

We propose a numerical technique to accurately simulate the vibrations of organic molecules in the gas phase, when pairs of atoms (or, in general, groups of degrees of freedom) are artificially decoupled, so that their motion is instantaneously decorrelated. The numerical technique we have developed is a symplectic integration algorithm that never requires computation of the force but requires estimates of the Hessian matrix. The theory we present to support our technique postulates a pair-decoupling Hamiltonian function, which parametrically depends on a decoupling coefficient α ∈ [0, 1]. The closer α is to 0, the more decoupled the selected atoms. We test the correctness of our numerical method on small molecular systems, and we apply it to study the vibrational spectroscopic features of salicylic acid at the Density Functional Theory
