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

Capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE)-mass spectrometry (MS) has been proposed as a powerful analytical tool for bottom-up, top-down, and native proteomics (multi-level proteomics) decades ago to analyze complex biological samples at the levels of peptides (bottom-up), proteoforms (top-down), and complexoforms (native). However, its broad adoption has been impeded by the limited robustness and reproducibility. Here, we present multi-level proteomics data from nearly 170 CZE-MS runs (~170 hours of instrument time), demonstrating qualitatively (i.e., the number of identified peptides and proteoforms, the number of detected complexoforms, and their migration time) and quantitatively (i.e., peptide, proteoform, and complexoform intensity) reproducible measurement of complex samples with varying levels of complexity, i.e.,
