Fragmentation of a Monoclonal Antibody by Peroxotungstate.
Article in Pharmaceutical research, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purposeTungsten and tungsten oxide leachates found in glass pre-filled syringes were identified to initiate protein precipitation and aggregation. Here, we tested the possibility of tungsten and tungsten oxide to induce the chemical degradation of proteins via reaction with hydrogen peroxide, a possible impurity present in protein formulations, to yield peroxotungstate.
methodsA monoclonal antibody (mAb) was incubated with various concentrations of peroxotungstate and the reaction mixtures analyzed by SDS-PAGE and mass spectrometry.
resultsExposure of a mAb to 1.07-1070 ppm peroxotungstate (based on tungsten content) at temperatures of 4°C and 22°C (pH 5-7) induced protein fragmentation. The extent of fragmentation increased with higher temperatures, lower pH and higher peroxotungstate concentrations. The mAb fragments were identified to contain different combinations of heavy chains (H) and light chains (L). Analogous mAb fragments were generated when the protein was exposed to H
conclusionFragmentation of the mAb by peroxotungstate is proposed to occur through inter-chain disulfide bond oxidation to form thiosulfinate (CyS(═O)SCy) and thiosulfonate [CyS(═O)
