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 present an efficient implementation of a one-step relativistic second-order multireference perturbation theory based on the multireference driven similarity renormalization group (MR-DSRG) using the exact two-component (X2C) Hamiltonian, which we denote X2C-DSRG-MRPT2. We show that the X2C-DSRG-MRPT2 method can accurately capture spin-orbit coupling (SOC) effects in the electronic structure of strongly correlated systems containing elements across the periodic table. We further demonstrate that the X2C-DSRG-MRPT2 method, through its variational treatment of SOC effects, can yield spin-orbit splittings with mean absolute percentage errors consistently below 7% with respect to experimental values for systems containing up to sixth row elements. With its modest computational scaling (fourth power in system size for the perturbative step) and high accuracy, X2C-DSRG-MRPT2 provides a promising avenue for the routine treatment of relativistic effects in strongly correlated molecular systems.
