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

backgroundN(ε)-carboxymethyl-lysine (CML) is a major advanced glycation end-product (AGEs) widely found in foods. The aim of our study was to evaluate how exogenous CML-peptide is dynamically absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and eliminated by renal tubular secretion using microPET imaging.

methodsThe present study consisted of three investigations. In study I, we synthesized the imaging tracer (18)F-CML by reacting N-succinimidyl 4-(18)F-fluorobenzoate ((18)F-SFB) with CML. In study II, the biological activity of (18)F-CML was evaluated in RAW264.7 cells and HepG2 cells. In study III, the biodistribution and elimination of AGEs in ICR mice were studied in vivo following tail vein injection and intragastric administration of (18)F-CML.

resultThe formation of (18)F-CML was confirmed by comparing its retention time with the corresponding reference compound (19)F-CML. The radiochemical purity (RCP) of (18)F-CML was >95%, and it showed a stable character in vitro and in vivo. Uptake of (18)F-CML by RAW264.7 cells and HepG2 cells could be inhibited by unmodified CML. (18)F-CML was quickly distributed via the blood, and it was rapidly excreted through the kidneys 20 min after tail vein injection. However, (18)F-CML was only slightly absorbed following intragastric administration. After administration of (18)F-CML via a stomach tube, the radioactivity was completely localized in the stomach for the first 15 min. At 150 min post intragastric administration, intense accumulation of radioactivity in the intestines was still observed.

conclusionsPET technology is a powerful tool for the in vivo analysis of the gastrointestinal absorption of orally administered drugs. (18)F-CML is hardly absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract. It is rapidly distributed and eliminated from blood following intravenous administration. Thus, it may not be harmful to healthy bodies. Our study showed the feasibility of noninvasively imaging (18)F-labeled AGEs and was the first to describe CML-peptide gastrointestinal absorption by means of PET.
