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 develop a first-principles many-body framework to describe photocarrier and phonon dynamics in semiconductors after ultrafast excitation. The method includes explicit ab initio light-matter coupling, collision integrals for carrier-carrier, carrier-phonon, and phonon-phonon scattering, time-dependent quasiparticle and phonon-frequency renormalizations, and light-induced coherent atomic motion. The equations of motion are solved in a maximally localized Wannier basis, ensuring gauge-consistent scattering integrals and allowing for dense momentum sampling, enabling direct comparison with pump-probe experiments. The framework is computationally efficient, scalable, and can be combined with constrained density-functional theory to study longer-time light-induced structural phase transitions. We demonstrate the method for MoS
