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

Destructive quantum interference (DQI) leads to a decrease in the conductance of certain well-documented molecules. Experimental observations have revealed both direct and indirect manifestations of DQI, although a comprehensive understanding of the underlying causes of these distinct outcomes remains elusive. In both cases, DQI lowers the conductance, but only the direct case exhibits a characteristic V-shaped dip in differential conductance. Currently, the direct signature has exclusively been observed in monolayers and gated single-molecule systems. In this study, we employ density functional theory to elucidate a plausible explanation for the absence of a direct DQI signature in single molecules. Specifically, we attribute the direct DQI signature to a resonance shift induced by intermolecular interactions, which are absent in the individual molecules. By illustrating the impact of these intermolecular interactions, we emphasize the need for explicit treatment of intermolecular interactions when simulating monolayers.
