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

Due to their critical functions in cell sensing and signal processing, membrane proteins are highly preferred as pharmacological targets, and antibody drugs constitute the fastest growing category of therapeutic agents on the pharmaceutical market. However, major limitations exist in developing antibodies that recognize complex, multipass transmembrane proteins, such as G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). These challenges, largely due to difficulties with recombinant expression of multipass transmembrane proteins, can be overcome using whole-cell screening techniques, which enable presentation of the functional antigen in its native conformation. Here, we developed suspension cell-based whole-cell panning methodologies to screen for specific binders against GPCRs within a naive yeast-displayed antibody library. We implemented our strategy to discover high-affinity antibodies against four distinct GPCR target proteins, demonstrating the potential for our cell-based screening workflow to advance the discovery of antibody therapeutics targeting membrane proteins.
