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

Post-translational modifications that do not result in a change in mass are particularly difficult to detect by mass spectrometry. For example, isomerization of aspartic acid or epimerization of any chiral residue within a peptide do not lead to mass shifts but can be identified by examination of independently acquired tandem mass spectra or by combination with another technique. For analysis of a biological sample, this means that liquid chromatography or some other type of separation must be used to first separate the isomers from one another. Furthermore, each specific m/z of interest must be sampled repeatedly to allow for comparison of the tandem mass spectra from each separated isomer, which contrasts with the traditional approach in proteomics where the goal is typically to avoid resampling the same m/z. We illustrate that isomerization and epimerization of peptides can be identified in this fashion by examination of long-lived crystallin proteins extracted from a sheep eye lens. Tandem mass spectrometry relying on a combination of radical directed dissociation (RDD) and collision induced dissociation (CID) following separation by liquid chromatography was used to identify modified peptides. Numerous sites of isomerization and epimerization, including several that have not been previously identified, were determined with peptide specificity. It is demonstrated that the specific sites of amino acid isomerization within each peptide can be identified by comparison with synthetic peptides. For α-crystallin proteins, the sites that undergo the greatest degree of isomerization correspond to disordered regions, which may have important implications on chaperone functionality within the context of aging.
