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

A framework for the rational selection of a minimal suite of nondegenerate developability assays (DAs) that maximize insight into candidate developability or storage stability is lacking. To address this, we subjected nine formulation:mAbs to 12 mechanistically distinct DAs together with measurement of their accelerated and long-term storage stability. We show that it is possible to identify a reduced set of key variables from this suite of DAs by using orthogonal statistical methods. We exemplify our approach by predicting the rank formulation:mAb degradation rate at 25 °C (determined over 6 months) using just five DAs that can be measured in less than 1 day, spanning a range of physicochemical features. Implementing such approaches focuses on resources, thus increasing sustainability and decreasing development costs.
