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 phenomenon of enthalpy-entropy compensation emerges as a ubiquitous feature of processes occurring in water, especially those involving biological macromolecules. In writing the present study, the aim was not to review most of the rationalizations proposed so far but to focus on a general theory of hydration, partly developed and applied by one of us. This theory poses a physical condition for the occurrence of enthalpy-entropy compensation: the energetic strength of the solute-water attraction must be weak compared to that of water-water H-bonds. This condition is largely fulfilled in water due to the cooperativity of its three-dimensional H-bonded network.
