Universal graph-based identifiers of chemical structures for linking large material databases.
Article in Nature communications, 2026. 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 rapid expansion of computational databases of materials, driven by advancements in computational speeds, storage, and algorithm development, has enabled the unified treatment of materials with various compositions and structures. However, the lack of universal identifiers for chemical structures impedes the efficient utilization of databases. To address this issue, we propose an identifier named Graph ID, which is based on chemically intuitive atomic distances and a novel node labeling scheme. Graph ID exhibits scalability and can accurately differentiate between structurally distinct materials. It can be applied to various chemical structures, including bulk crystals, surface structures, and molecules. The code to generate Graph ID is available as open-source software, which will contribute to accelerating materials simulations and data analysis.
