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

Accurate structural identification of lipids in imaging mass spectrometry is critical to properly contextualizing spatial distributions with tissue biochemistry. Gas-phase charge inversion ion/ion reactions alter the ion type prior to dissociation to allow for more structurally informative fragmentation and improve lipid identification at the isomeric level. In this work, infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD) was interfaced with a commercial hybrid Qh-FT-ICR mass spectrometer to enable the rapid fragmentation of gas-phase charge inversion ion/ion reaction products at every pixel in imaging mass spectrometry experiments. An ion/ion reaction between phosphatidylcholine (PC) monocations generated from rat brain tissue via matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) and 1,4-phenylenediproprionic acid reagent dianions generated via electrospray ionization (ESI) followed by IRMPD of the resulting product ion complex produces selective fatty acyl chain cleavages indicative of fatty acyl carbon compositions in the lipid. Ion/ion reaction images using this workflow allow for mapping of the relative spatial distribution of multiple PC isomers under a single sum composition lipid identification. Lipid isomers display significantly different relative spatial distributions within rat brain tissue, highlighting the importance of resolving isomers in imaging mass spectrometry experiments.
