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

For decades, scientists have studied the intricate charge migration dynamics, where, after ionization, a localized charge distribution ("hole") migrates across the molecule on a femtosecond timescale. This has the potential for controlling electrons in molecules, yet a comprehensive understanding of the many aspects of charge migration is still missing. In this work, we analyze charge migration using an extension of localized intrinsic bond orbitals (IBOs). These orbitals lead to a compact representation of the dynamics and map the complex, correlated many-electron charge migration to chemical concepts such as curly arrows and orbital-orbital interactions. By analyzing multiple challenging scenarios, we show how IBOs enable us to identify key mechanisms in charge migration. For example, we show that different mechanisms are responsible for converting a π-shaped hole to a σ-shaped hole and
