Improving the Sensitivity of Protein Quantification by Immunoaffinity Liquid Chromatography─Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry Using an Iterative Transition Summing Technique.

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.
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
The desire to reach ever-diminishing lower limits of quantification (LLOQ) to probe changes in low abundance protein targets has led to enormous progress in sample preparation and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) instrumentation. To maximize signal and reduce noise, many approaches have been employed, including specific immunoaffinity (IA) enrichment and reducing the LC flow to the nanoflow (nLC) level; however, additional sensitivity gains may still be required. Recently, a technique termed "echo summing" has been described for small-molecular-weight analytes on a triple quadrupole (QqQ) MS where multiple iterations of the same, single selected reaction monitoring (SRM) transition are collected, summed, and integrated, yielding significant analyte dependent signal-to-noise (S/N) improvements. Herein, the direct applicability of echo summing to protein quantification by sequential IA combined with nLC-MS/MS (IA-nLC-MS/MS) is described for a beta nerve growth factor (NGF) and a soluble asialoglycoprotein receptor (sASGPR) assay from human serum. Five iterations of echo summing outperformed traditional collection in relative average accuracy (-1.5 ± 7.7 vs -41.7 ± 10.7% bias) and precision (7.8 vs 18.4% coefficient of variation (CV)) of the low-end quality control (QC) sample (
