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

A detailed study of the X...N (X = I, Br) halogen bonds in complexes formed by an extended set of substituted pyridines with D-X molecules (D = X, CN) is reported here. The nature of these interactions has been investigated at different (MP2 and DFT) levels of theory through Bader's quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) and Pendás' interacting quantum atoms (IQA) scheme, focusing on the role of the local environment (i.e. the substituent on the pyridine ring and the halogenated residue) on the halogen bond features. We found that the exchange-correlation energy represents a substantial contribution to the IQA total energy, in some cases comparable to (I
