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

The pharmacological profile of ipragliflozin (ASP1941; (1S)-1,5-anhydro-1-C-{3-[(1-benzothiophen-2-yl)methyl]-4-fluorophenyl}-D: -glucitol compound with L: -proline (1:1)), a novel SGLT2 selective inhibitor, was investigated. In vitro, the potency of ipragliflozin to inhibit SGLT2 and SGLT1 and stability were assessed. In vivo, the pharmacokinetic and pharmacologic profiles of ipragliflozin were investigated in normal mice, streptozotocin-induced type 1 diabetic rats, and KK-A(y) type 2 diabetic mice. Ipragliflozin potently and selectively inhibited human, rat, and mouse SGLT2 at nanomolar ranges and exhibited stability against intestinal glucosidases. Ipragliflozin showed good pharmacokinetic properties following oral dosing, and dose-dependently increased urinary glucose excretion, which lasted for over 12 h in normal mice. Single administration of ipragliflozin resulted in dose-dependent and sustained antihyperglycemic effects in both diabetic models. In addition, once-daily ipragliflozin treatment over 4 weeks improved hyperglycemia with a concomitant increase in urinary glucose excretion in both diabetic models. In contrast, ipragliflozin at pharmacological doses did not affect normoglycemia, as was the case with glibenclamide, and did not influence intestinal glucose absorption and electrolyte balance. These results suggest that ipragliflozin is an orally active SGLT2 selective inhibitor that induces sustained increases in urinary glucose excretion by inhibiting renal glucose reabsorption, with subsequent antihyperglycemic effect and a low risk of hypoglycemia. Ipragliflozin has, therefore, the therapeutic potential to treat hyperglycemia in diabetes by increasing glucose excretion into urine.
