Umbrella Sampling for Excited States Using a Semiempirical Method.
Article in JACS Au, 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
Umbrella sampling is widely used to explore ground-state reaction pathways that exhibit high energy barriers and to identify stable molecular conformations. In this work, we extend umbrella sampling to the excited states by using the energy gap between electronic states as a collective variable, not only to locate intersection seams but also to enable the systematic exploration of excited-state relaxation pathways leading to conical intersections. Based on this approach, we present a complete workflow for studying excited-state relaxation mechanisms in detail. As a case study, we apply this method to a push-pull stilbene derivative, 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)-4'-nitrostilbene, using the semiempirical multireference configuration interaction (MRCI) based on the orthogonalization model 2 (OM2) method to simulate photoisomerization. Combining potential energy surface scans, nonadiabatic dynamics simulations, and excited-state umbrella sampling, we identify and characterize five distinct conical intersections for the
