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

Monte Carlo neutron ray-tracing simulations of time-of-flight (TOF)-Laue neutron macromolecular crystal diffraction (n-MX) using the McStas software package were performed for the upcoming NMX Macromolecular Diffractometer at the European Spallation Source. Splitting neutron rays that arrive at the crystal leads to dramatic improvements in event formation with minimal computational overhead. The simulated event-probability data were sampled using a new single-pass weighted reservoir-sampling method, and processed like real n-MX data using DIALS. The effects of air and beamstop scatter on simulated data were investigated.
