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 hydrogen-bonded complexes of phenol with the chiral molecule methyloxirane (MOx) have been studied under supersonic jet conditions by photoelectron circular dichroism (PECD) experiments based on a resonance-enhanced two-photon ionization scheme. Ionization of the achiral phenol moiety within the complex leads to a strong photoelectron circular dichroism signal, due to chirality induction from the methyloxirane. We observe and characterize two conformers of the complex by IR-UV spectroscopy. They show PECD of similar magnitude and opposite in sign, which is explained in terms of a pseudo-enantiomer relation between them due to the complexation with one or the other of the two lone electron pairs of the MOx oxygen atom, leading to opposite out-of-plane deformation of the phenol hydroxyl group. Chirality indicators are used to quantify the chirality of the wave function localized on phenol. It is therefore possible to differentiate two diasterotopic electron lone pairs by chiroptical spectroscopy in the gas phase.
