Influence of carboxylation on osteocalcin detection by mass spectrometry.
Article in Rapid communications in mass spectrometry : RCM, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
rationaleOsteocalcin is a small, abundant bone protein that is difficult to detect using high-throughput tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) proteomic approaches from bone protein extracts, and is predominantly detected by non-MS immunological methods. Here, we analyze bovine osteocalcin and its post-translational modifications to determine why a protein of this size goes undetected.
methodsOsteocalcin was purified from cow bone using well-established methods. Intact osteocalcin or trypsin-digested osteocalcin were separated using an Agilent 1200 series high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system and analyzed using a ThermoScientific LTQ-Orbitrap XL after fragmentation with higher-energy collision dissociation. Data were analyzed using Mascot or Prosight Lite.
resultsOur results support previous findings that the cow osteocalcin has up to three carboxylations using both intact osteocalcin and digested forms. Using Mascot, we were able to detect osteocalcin peptides, but no fragments that localized the carboxylations. Full annotation using Prosight Lite of the intact (three carboxylations), N-terminal peptide (one carboxylation), and middle peptide (two carboxylations) showed complete fragmentation was present, but complete neutral loss was observed.
conclusionsOsteocalcin carboxylation, and its associated neutral losses, makes high-throughput detection of this protein challenging; however, alternative fragmentation or limited purification can overcome these challenges. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
