Investigating the Spectroscopy of the Gas Phase Guanine-Cytosine Pair: Keto versus Enol Configurations.
Article in The journal of physical chemistry letters, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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 report on a vibrational study of the guanine-cytosine dimer tautomers using state-of-the-art quasiclassical trajectory and semiclassical vibrational spectroscopy. The latter includes possible quantum mechanical effects. Through an accurate comparison to the experimental spectra, we are able to shine a light on the hydrogen bond network of one of the main subunits of DNA and put the experimental assignment on a solid footing. Our calculations corroborate the experimental conclusion that the global minimum Watson-and-Crick structure is not detected in the spectra, and there is no evidence of tunnel-effect-based double proton hopping. Our accurate assignment of the spectral features may also serve as a basis for the development of precise force fields to study the guanine-cytosine dimer.
