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

Accurate estimation of water solubility is crucial for chemical screening, yet traditional predictive tools such as the General Solubility Equation (GSE) require melting point and octanol-water partition coefficient data and often struggle with weak electrolytes. This study presents two highly efficient reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) correlation strategies evaluated, comprising 49 binary solvent systems on three stationary phases. First, simple, melting point, octanol-water partition coefficient, and descriptor-free, isocratic models were explored to estimate the water solubility of neutral organic compounds using RPLC retention as the sole input. This approach demonstrated superior predictive accuracy of 0.307 log units and a more uniform error distribution across both non-electrolytes and weak electrolytes than the more conventional GSE. Second, to improve the predictive accuracy of estimating water solubility, RPLC retention and melting point data were explored. Predictive accuracy improved notably at higher organic volume fractions (50%-70% v/v) across all evaluated stationary phases. The correlation model comprising 70% (v/v) acetonitrile on an XTerra MS C18 stationary phase yielded a coefficient of determination of 0.962, a standard deviation of the model fit of 0.276, and an average absolute error value of 0.222. Together, these complementary chromatographic modelling strategies offer powerful, high-throughput alternatives for rapid solubility screening: providing either a direct, descriptor-free approach for compounds lacking structural information or a highly precise RPLC model approach combining retention and melting point data that minimizes prediction errors below 0.3 log units.
