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 sensitive and specific liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry assay was developed for the quantification of chimeric aducanumab (chAdu), a therapeutic antibody targeting pathological amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease, in murine biological matrices. This method addresses the challenges of quantifying biotherapeutics in multiple tissue types within preclinical animal models with complex genetic backgrounds, where traditional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) methods may suffer from interference and limited sensitivity. The assay uses parallel reaction monitoring on a Lumos Tribrid Orbitrap mass spectrometer, coupled with an Evosep LC system, and AssayMap Bravo-based automated sample processing. Key features include protein A enrichment for improved sensitivity, optimized peptide selection based on sequence uniqueness and ionization response, and incorporation of stable isotope-labeled peptides for accurate quantification. Assay performance was evaluated for selectivity, repeatability, and stability. The fit-for-purpose assay was successfully applied to quantify chAdu in both mouse cortex and plasma samples obtained from a pilot pharmacokinetic study of a mouse model of amyloid plaque deposition. This targeted mass spectrometry workflow offers a robust and reproducible alternative to ELISA for preclinical biotherapeutic analysis, particularly when dealing with complex biological samples.
