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

Free-flow electrophoresis is a core technology for biological particle separation, but traditional devices suffer from low automation, poor flow stability, and limited throughput, hindering industrial-scale applications. Herein, a novel fully automatic reciprocating free-flow isoelectric focusing (RFFIEF) system, a batch-type of automated closed-loop free-flow isoelectric focusing (FFIEF), was developed, integrating a 24-channel separation chamber, closed gas-liquid circulation drive, and intelligent control system to achieve unattended standardized operation. Standard protein verification showed excellent flow stability and pH gradient reproducibility (pooled standard deviation [SD] = 0.19 pH units excluding ampholyte-induced outliers). The system was applied to large-scale separation of milk exosomes, which were effectively focused at pH 5.0-7.5. Exosome subpopulations were fractionated by surface charge: CD81-positive subpopulations concentrated at pH 5.8-6.5, whereas CD63-positive subpopulations were highly enriched at pH 6.9. This system breaks through the automation bottleneck of conventional devices, providing an efficient platform for large-scale biological particle separation with broad industrial prospects.
