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

We investigate the potential performance improvements of double-hybrid density functionals by replacing the standard scaled opposite-spin MP2 (SOS-MP2) with the modified opposite-spin-scaled MP2 (MOS-MP2) in the nonlocal correlation component. Using the large and diverse GMTKN55 data set, we find that MOS-double hybrids provide significantly better accuracy compared to SOS-MP2-based double hybrids when empirical dispersion correction is not employed. The noncovalent interaction subsets account for the majority of this improvement. However, when the D4 dispersion correction is applied, the performance gap between MOS-MP2- and SOS-MP2-based double hybrids becomes negligible. While the new methods do not outperform the current state-of-the-art double hybrid functionals, our study offers valuable insights into the applicability of distance-dependent MP2 in place of conventional SOS-MP2, as well as the critical role of empirical dispersion corrections in further enhancing accuracy─insights that are useful for guiding future method developments. For nine transition metal sets, dispersion-corrected spin-component-scaled double hybrids are still significantly better than any MOS-double hybrid functional.
