Mass photometry as a fast, facile characterization tool for direct measurement of mRNA length.
Article in Biology methods & protocols, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Oligonucleotide integrity is a critical quality attribute for many new therapeutic modalities. Current assays often measure attributes such as length using capillary electrophoresis or liquid chromatography. The length is then corroborated with sequencing data to ensure oligonucleotide quality. An orthogonal measure to these classical separations is to measure intact mass, which traditional mass spectrometry cannot. Herein, we report the use of mass photometry to directly measure RNA length using RNA ladders as a calibrant.
