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

Empirical substituent constants, such as the Hammett parameters, have found important utility in organic and other areas of chemistry. They are useful both in predicting the impact of substitutions on chemical processes and in rationalizing after-the-fact observations on chemical bonding and reactivity. We assess the impact of substitutions on monoiodinated benzene rings and find that the modifications that substituents induce on the electrostatic potentials at the sigma hole on the terminal I center correlate strongly with established trends of common substituents. As an alternative to the experimental procedures involved in obtaining empirically based substituent constants, the computationally determined constants based on induced electrostatic potentials offer a model for quantifying the influence of mono- and polyatomic, neutral, and ionic substituents on their compounds. A partitioning scheme is proposed that allows us to discretely separate σ and π contributions to generate quantitative measures of substituent effects.
