Investigation of Fragmentation of Tryptophan Nitrogen Radical Cation.

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
This work describes investigation of the fragmentation mechanism of tryptophan N-indolyl radical cation, H3N(+)-TrpN(•) (m/z 204) studied via DFT calculations and several gas-phase experimental techniques. The main fragment ion at m/z 131, shown to be a mixture of up to four isomers including 3-methylindole (3MI) π-radical cation, was found to undergo further loss of an H atom to yield one of the two isomeric m/z 130 ions. 3-Methylindole radical cation generated independently (via CID of [Cu(II)(terpy)3MI](•2+)) displayed gas-phase reactivity partially similar to that of the m/z 131 fragment, further confirming our proposed mechanism. CID of deuterated tryptophan N-indolyl radical cation (m/z 208) suggested that up to six H atoms are involved in the pathway to formation of the m/z 131 ion, consistent with hydrogen atom scrambling during CID of protonated Trp.
