Description of the Condensed Phases of Water in Terms of Quantum Condensates.
Article in Entropy (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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 "abnormal" properties of ice and liquid water can be explained by a hybrid quantum/classical framework based on objective facts. Internal decoherence due to the low dissociation energy of the H-bond and the strong electric dipole moment lead to a quantum condensate of O atoms dressed with classical oscillators and a degenerate electric field. These classical oscillators are either subject to equipartition in the liquid or enslaved to the field interference in the ice. A set of four observables and the degeneracy entropy explain the heat capacities, temperatures, and latent heats of the quantum phase transition; the super-thermal-insulator state of the ice; the transition between high- and low-density liquids by supercooling; AND the temperature of the liquid's maximum density. The condensate also describes an aerosol of water droplets. In conclusion, quantum condensates turn out to be an essential part of our everyday environment.
