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

When developping selective crystallization or precipitation processes, biopharmaceutical modalities require empirical screenings and analytics tailored to the specific needs of the target molecule. The multi-way chemometric approach called parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) coupled with ultraviolet visible light (UV/Vis) spectroscopy is able to predict specific concentrations and spectra from highly structured data sets without the need for calibration samples and reference analytics. These calculated models can provide exploratory information on pure species spectra and concentrations in all analyzed samples by representing one model component with one species. In this work, protein mixtures, monoclonal antibodies, and virus-like particles in chemically defined and complex solutions were investigated in three high-throughput crystallization or precipitation screenings with the aim to construct one PARAFAC model per case. Spectroscopic data sets of samples after the selective crystallization or precipitation, washing, and redissolution were recorded and arranged into a four-dimensional data set per case study. Different reference analytics and pure species spectra served as validation. Appropriate spectral preprocessing parameters were found for all case studies allowing even the application of this approach to the third case study in which quantitative concentration analytics are missing. Regardless of the modality or the number of species present in complex solutions, all models were able to estimate the specific concentration and find the optimal process condition regarding yield and product purity. It was shown that in complex solutions, species demonstrating similar phase behavior can be clustered as one component and described in the model. PARAFAC as a calibration-free approach coupled with UV/Vis spectroscopy provides a fast overview of species present in complex solution and of their concentration during selective crystallization or precipitation, washing, and redissolution.
