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

Immunopeptidomics is crucial for immunotherapy and vaccine development. Because the generation of immunopeptides from their parent proteins does not adhere to clear-cut rules, rather than being able to use known digestion patterns, every possible protein subsequence within human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class-specific length restrictions needs to be considered during sequence database searching. This leads to an inflation of the search space and results in lower spectrum annotation rates. Peptide-spectrum match (PSM) rescoring is a powerful enhancement of standard searching that boosts the spectrum annotation performance. We analyze 302,105 unique synthesized non-tryptic peptides from the ProteomeTools project on a timsTOF-Pro to generate a ground-truth dataset containing 93,227 MS/MS spectra of 74,847 unique peptides, that is used to fine-tune the deep learning-based fragment ion intensity prediction model Prosit. We demonstrate up to 3-fold improvement in the identification of immunopeptides, as well as increased detection of immunopeptides from low input samples.
