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

Understanding the physical underpinnings and geometry of molecular clusters is of great importance in many fields, ranging from studying the beginning of the universe to the formation of atmospheric particles. To this end, several approaches have been suggested, yet identifying the most stable cluster geometry (i.e., global potential energy minimum) remains a challenge, especially for highly symmetric clusters. Here, we suggest a new funneled Monte Carlo-based simulated annealing (SA) approach, which includes two key steps: generation of symmetrical clusters and classification of the clusters according to their geometry using machine learning (MCSA-ML). We demonstrate the merits of the MCSA-ML method in comparison to other approaches on several Lennard-Jones (LJ) clusters and four molecular clusters-Ser
