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

Rapid X-ray ionization of a core electron is known to induce the attosecond motion of valence electrons; however, the effect of core-hole shape on the triggered dynamics remains relatively unknown. In this work, the sub-four fs response of prototypical functionalized/heterocyclic/polycyclic molecules was simulated using real-time time-dependent density functional theory (RT-TDDFT), a sudden approximation core-hole, and phenomenologically Auger-Meitner (AM) decay. These molecules included fluorobenzene, chlorobenzene, bromobenzene, phenol, thiophenol, pyridine, phosphorus, and azulene. It is observed that the valence electron dynamics are essentially independent of the core-hole created, provided that it is ionized from an inner-shell orbital and not an inner-valence orbital. This has broad implications for free-electron laser studies of X-ray pumped attosecond processes since the flexibility in edge allows for a wide range of experimental modalities, core-holes with longer AM lifetimes, and molecular targets.
