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

Intrinsic differential scanning fluorimetry (DSF) is essential for analyzing protein thermal stability. Until now, intrinsic DSF was characterized by medium throughput and high consumable costs. Here, we present a microplate-based intrinsic DSF approach that enables the measurement of up to 384 samples in parallel by consuming only 10 μL per sample. We systematically test and benchmark the new intrinsic DSF against gold-standard methods such as differential scanning microcalorimetry and circular dichroism. Using a range of model proteins and sample conditions, we demonstrate the robustness and versatility of the intrinsic DSF method for characterizing protein stability and ranking protein drug candidates. In addition, we demonstrate modulated scanning fluorimetry (MSF) capabilities on the intrinsic DSF hardware that enable simultaneous MSF measurements in 384-microwell plates. Overall, the presented technology is a powerful tool for the early stability analysis of various protein samples and drug candidates.
