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

Conical intersections (CIs) are the most efficient channels of photodeactivation and energy transfer, while femtosecond spectroscopy is the main experimental tool delivering information on molecular CI-driven photoinduced processes. In this work, we undertake a comprehensive ab initio investigation of the CI-mediated internal conversion in fulvene by simulating evolutions of electronic populations, bond lengths and angles, and time-resolved transient absorption (TA) pump-probe (PP) spectra. TA PP spectra are evaluated on the fly by combining the symmetrical quasiclassical/Meyer-Miller-Stock-Thoss (SQC/MMST) dynamics and the doorway-window representation of spectroscopic signals. We show that the simulated time-resolved TA PP spectra reveal not only the population dynamics but also the key nuclear motions as well as mode-mode couplings. We also demonstrate that TA PP signals are not only experimental observables: They can also be considered as information-rich purely theoretical observables, which deliver more information on the CI-driven dynamics than conventional electronic populations. This information can be extracted by the appropriate theoretical analyses of time-resolved TA PP signals.
