Distinguishing Ile/Leu Variant Ligands in the Immunopeptidome Using Hybrid EAD + CID Fragmentation (ExCID).

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.
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
Immunopeptidomics aims to facilitate T-cell target discovery by analyzing human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-bound peptides using tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). MS/MS analysis of peptides conventionally relies on collision-induced dissociation (CID) of selected precursor ions. However, CID analysis of immunopeptides, owing to their diverse termini (nontryptic) and relatively short lengths (8- to 12-mer for class I HLA), can be challenging. It is impossible to differentiate isobaric amino acids, such as isoleucine and leucine sequence variants, which are frequent amino acids in the immunopeptidomes of many HLA allotypes. To address this, we leveraged the alternative fragmentation method, Electron-Activated Dissociation (EAD), and its CID-supplemented mode (EAD x CID, or ExCID) on the SCIEX ZenoTOF 7600+ system to characterize Ile/Leu sequence variants in the immunopeptidome. We first used a panel of seven synthetic Ile/Leu-substituted peptides and demonstrated that both EAD and ExCID efficiently generate variant-distinguishing
