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

Previously, we have described a successful molecular switch (8-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)quinolin-7-ol), working on the basis of long-range proton transfer. Bearing in mind that its switching efficiency in low-polarity aprotic solvents is not sufficient, in the current communication, we investigate in detail the effect of the substitution in the benzothiazole ring. By using the DFT approach, the ground-state stability of the tautomeric forms, involved in the switching process, is modeled with the aim of finding conditions where clean switching could be possible in variety of aprotic solvents. The results indicate that the substitution with electron-acceptor substituents could increase the switching efficiency, but the overall improvement depends on the positions and electronic effect of the particular substituent.
