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

Vibrational strong coupling (VSC) has been shown to significantly modify the chemical and physical properties of molecules and materials. Here we report the non-resonant Rayleigh scattering of various molecules in liquid phase, such as toluene and water, and find that it is enhanced by ca. two orders of magnitude in the visible upon VSC of vibrational bands of the solvent in the infrared (IR). The results show that the enhanced scattering is due to the formation of new phase possibly consisting of clusters. The VSC phase undergoes a well-defined transition with temperature and solvent composition. This finding has significant consequences for understanding how VSC influences molecular processes such as chemical reactivity and self-assembly.
