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

Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) is a powerful analytical technique that provides spatially preserved detection and quantification of analytes in tissue specimens. However, clinical translation still requires improved throughput, precision, and accuracy. To accomplish this, we created "Chemical QuantArray", a gelatin tissue microarray (TMA) mold filled with serial dilutions of isotopically labeled endogenous metabolite standards. The mold is then cryo-sectioned onto a tissue homogenate to produce calibration curves. To improve precision and accuracy, we automatically remove pixels outside of each TMA well and investigated several intensity normalizations, including the utilization of a second stable isotope internal standard (IS). Chemical QuantArray enables the quantification of several endogenous metabolites over a wide dynamic range and significantly improve over current approaches. The technique reduces the space needed on the MALDI slides for calibration standards by approximately 80%. Furthermore, removal of empty pixels and normalization to an internal standard or matrix peak provided precision (<20% RSD) and accuracy (<20% DEV). Finally, we demonstrate the applicability of Chemical QuantArray by quantifying multiple purine metabolites in 14 clinical tumor specimens using a single MALDI slide. Chemical QuantArray improves the analytical characteristics and practical feasibility of MALDI-MSI metabolite quantification in clinical and translational applications.
