A Semi-Empirical Framework for Interpreting Traveling Wave Ion Mobility Arrival Time Distributions.
Article in Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry, 2019. 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
The inherent structural heterogeneity of biomolecules is an important biophysical property that is essential to their function, but is challenging to characterize experimentally. We present a workflow that rapidly and quantitatively assesses the conformational heterogeneity of peptides and proteins in the gas phase using traveling wave ion mobility (TWIM) arrival time distributions (ATDs). We have established a set of semi-empirical equations that model the TWIM ATD peak width and resolution across a wide range of wave amplitudes (V) and wave velocities (v). In addition, a conformational broadening parameter, δ, can be extracted from this analysis that reports on the contribution of conformational heterogeneity to the broadening of TWIM ATD peak width during ion mobility separation. We use this δ value to evaluate the conformational heterogeneity of a set of helical peptides, and our analysis correlates well with previous peak width observations reported for these ions. Furthermore, we use molecular dynamics simulations to independently investigate the general flexibility of these peptides in the gas phase, and generate similar trends found in experimental TWIM data. Finally, we extended our analysis to Avidin, a 64-kDa homotetramer, and quantify the structural heterogeneity of this intact complex using TWIM ATD data as a function of cross-linking. We observe an initial reduction in δ values as a function of cross-linker concentration, demonstrating the sensitivity of our δ value analysis to changes in flexibility of the assembly.
