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

Glycosylation represents a critical quality attribute modulating a myriad of physiochemical properties and effector functions of biotherapeutics. Furthermore, a rising landscape of glycosylated biotherapeutics including biosimilars, biobetters, and fusion proteins harboring complicated and dynamic glycosylation profiles requires tailored analytical approaches capable of characterizing their heterogeneous nature. In this work, we perform in-depth evaluation of the glycosylation profiles of three glycoengineered variants of the widely used biotherapeutic erythropoietin. We analyzed these samples in parallel using a glycopeptide-centric liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry approach and high-resolution native mass spectrometry. Although for all of the studied variants the glycopeptide and native mass spectrometry data were in good qualitative agreement, we observed substantial quantitative differences arising from ionization deficiencies and unwanted neutral losses, in particular, for sialylated glycopeptides in the glycoproteomics approach. However, the latter provides direct information about glycosite localization. We conclude that the combined parallel use of native mass spectrometry and bottom-up glycoproteomics offers superior characterization of glycosylated biotherapeutics and thus provides a valuable attribute in the characterization of glycoengineered proteins and other complex biotherapeutics.
