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

We propose here a description and classification of the hydrogen bond (HB) that is based on the Graphic representation of the Local electron Energy Density H(r) (GLED). A peculiar aspect of the GLED method, proposed by us in a recent study [Journal of Chemical Physics 163 (2025): 034107], is that the major character of the bond (covalent or noncovalent) can be inferred simply by the visual inspection of the plotted H(r), particularly the 3D H(r) = 0 isosurface. The analysis of the hydrogen-bonded complexes unraveled, in particular, that their bonding character is strictly related to their dissociation energy (DE), so that the GLED assignment can be used to estimate the strength of the interaction. We also found that increasing values of DE mirror, in particular, an increased degree of covalency of the interaction. We could thus propose a classification of the HB that is based on the combined use of bonding character and stability. The HB was, in particular, assigned as weak (0.5-4.5 kcal mol
