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

In order to achieve optimum conditions of electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry (MS) methods, samples and mobile phases are often supplemented with acids, bases, supercharging reagents, and electrospray-friendly solvents. Typically, one pH or concentration of these additives is used in a given method, which is selected based on iterative optimization or literature. However, different pH values and concentrations of additives can be suitable for the analysis of different species, and subtle changes can bring different analytical information. Therefore, here we demonstrate a precise MS optimization system enabling dynamic scans of acid-base and additive concentrations in ESI-MS. In the case of low-molecular-weight analytes, MS signals can be enhanced by selecting the optimum conditions in single scans. The online acid-base scan showed enhancement factors of ∼5.4-7.9 for amino acids and related compounds, ∼44.7 for glutathione, and ∼4.5-10.3 for some tested phospholipids at 25%, 75%, and 90% base (stock solution volume ratio), respectively. For proteins, charge state distributions (CSDs) can be manipulated, bringing information on vulnerability of the protein tertiary structures to the changing environment.
