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

Limited proteolysis coupled to mass spectrometry (LiP-MS) probes protein conformational dynamics, but interpretation of LiP-MS data is complicated by heterogeneous proteolytic cleavage patterns and missing data. Recent advances in data-independent acquisition (DIA) and machine learning-based search engines promise improved sensitivity and reproducibility, yet their performance in LiP-MS workflows remains underexplored. We systematically evaluated selected library-free DIA workflows using a rapamycin-treated human cell lysate and a yeast heat shock data set, benchmarking DIA-NN and Spectronaut for identification depth, reproducibility, and false discovery rate control. Our results show that library-free approaches achieve high sensitivity, eliminating the experimental overhead and sample requirements associated with empirical libraries. Building on these advances, we introduce a DIA-based Limited Proteolysis data Analysis pipeline (DIA-LiPA), a data analysis workflow tailored for LiP-MS data that integrates semitryptic- and tryptic-level precursor data and accounts for missingness to enable structural interpretation. Validation across multiple data sets confirmed that DIA-LiPA reproduces known structural signatures and uncovers additional regulatory patterns, providing a robust framework for mechanistic insights into protein dynamics.
