Not every supplement label is built the same way, and the difference matters more than it might seem at first glance.
A proprietary blend lists its ingredients by name, in descending order by amount, alongside one combined weight for the whole blend. You know what's in it, but not how much of each specific ingredient.
A fully-dosed label, like CartiVex's, lists each ingredient on its own line with its own individual milligram amount. Nothing is combined into a single blend total.
If you're trying to compare a supplement's amounts against published research, a fully-dosed label gives you the actual numbers to work with, rather than a combined figure that could be split any number of ways.
