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

Health authorities have highlighted the need to determine oligonucleotide aggregates. However, existing technologies have limitations that have prevented the reliable analysis of size variants for large nucleic acids and lipid nanoparticles (LNPs). In this work, nucleic acid and LNP aggregation was examined using prototype, low adsorption ultrawide pore size exclusion chromatography (SEC) columns. A preliminary study was conducted to determine the column's physicochemical properties. A large difference in aggregate content (17.8 vs 59.7 %) was found for a model messenger RNA (mRNA) produced by different manufacturers. We further investigated the nature of the aggregates via a heat treatment. Interestingly, thermal stress irreversibly decreased the amount of aggregates from 59.7 to 4.1% and increased the main peak area 3.3-fold. To the best of our knowledge, for the first time, plasmid DNA topological forms and multimers were separated by analytical SEC. The degradation trends were compared to the data obtained with an anion exchange chromatography method. Finally, unconjugated and fragment antigen-binding (Fab)-guided LNPs were analyzed and their elution times were plotted against their sizes as measured by DLS. Multi-angle light scattering (MALS) was coupled to SEC in order to gain further insights on large species eluting before the LNPs, which were later identified as self-associating LNPs. This study demonstrated the utility of ultrawide pore SEC columns in characterizing the size variants of large nucleic acid therapeutics and LNPs.
