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 present a theoretical framework for a hybrid linear vibronic coupling model electrostatically embedded into a molecular mechanics environment, termed the linear vibronic coupling/molecular mechanics (LVC/MM) method, for the surface hopping including arbitrary coupling (SHARC) molecular dynamics package. Electrostatic embedding is realized through the computation of interactions between environment point charges and distributed multipole expansions (DMEs, up to quadrupoles) that represent each electronic state and transition densities in the diabatic basis. The DME parameters are obtained through a restrained electrostatic potential (RESP) fit, which we extended to yield higher-order multipoles. We also implemented in SHARC a scheme for achieving roto-translational invariance of LVC models as well as a general quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) interface, an OpenMM interface, and restraining potentials for simulating liquid droplets. Using thioformaldehyde in water as a test case, we demonstrate that LVC/MM can accurately reproduce the solvation structure and energetics of rigid solutes, with errors on the order of 1-2 kcal/mol compared to a BP86/MM reference. The implementation in SHARC is shown to be very efficient, enabling the simulation of trajectories on the nanosecond time scale in a matter of days.
