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

The yield of a photochemical process can be maximized by optimizing the driving fields, such as in optical control, or the initial wave function, as in geometrical optimization. We combine both algorithms in an iterative process, showing very fast convergence and great improvement in the yields, as applied to driving population to the second excited state of the molecular hydrogen cation through the first excited dissociative state by a pump-pump scheme. The results reveal the impact of the initial vibrational coherences in photoinduced processes that occur at nuclear configurations very far from the ground state, or that are even mediated by processes in the continuum. On the other hand, depending on whether we maximize the total electronic population (that mainly dissociates) or the bound population, the initial wave functions change considerably, involving nodal patterns in the position or in the momentum representations, respectively, that lead to different dynamics.
