A high-specificity aniline-based mass tag for aldehyde detection.
Article in Rapid communications in mass spectrometry : RCM, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
rationaleWe studied an aldehyde-labeling reagent, N-{2-[(4-aminophenoxy)methyl]benzyl}-N,N-diethylethanaminium bromide (CAX-A), containing an aniline functional group for the detection of aldehydes with high specificity.
methodsSix standard aldehydes were labeled by CAX-A and analyzed using LC-ESI-Orbitrap-MS. The aldehydes (each 40 nmol) were derivatized with CAX-A in the presence of sodium cyanoborohydride at room temperature overnight. The labeling reaction was applied to two urine samples for the detection of putative aldehydes.
resultsAll six standard CAX-aldehyde derivatives were detected as precursor ions by dilution to 830 fmol/injection (signal-to-noise [S/N] ratio 587-1573). A total of 2184 MS1 features were detected overall in urine and blanks, of which 14 were putative aldehydes found only in urine.
conclusionsCAX-A can provide three levels of specificity for aldehyde detection. First is the known labeling specificity of the aniline functional group for aldehydes, which we confirmed here by observing a significant peak only from the aldehyde (S/N = 3388) when a mixture of an aldehyde, a ketone (no peak), and a quinone (S/N = 2.3) was tested. Second is the ease of formation of an analyte-characteristic first product ion (via anchimeric-assisted loss of triethylamine as a neutral) in MS2 from a CAX-labeled analyte. Third is the formation of a characteristic second product ion via loss of CO in MS3. CAX-A enables the specific, convenient detection of putative aldehydes in urine.
