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

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) and other biopharmaceuticals require robust analytical methods to assess biotransformation in biological matrices. Current approaches often require off-line enrichment and extensive chromatographic separation, limiting throughput and complicating data processing. We developed a native affinity liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (aLC-MS) method using POROS CaptureSelect FcXL columns combined with optimized solvents and MS parameters for direct analysis (1D aLC-MS) of ADCs and other antibody-derived formats in complex sample matrices, such as serum. The method was evaluated using stability studies and concentration series in mouse serum. Direct analysis enabled accurate determination of drug-antibody ratio (DAR), drug-load distribution (DLD) and relative drug abundance across samples without chromatographic peak integration. Stability studies revealed distinct ADC biotransformation profiles in serum versus PBS, including maleimide hydrolysis and disulfide exchange at under-conjugated cysteine sites. The aLC-MS method achieved excellent linearity (R
