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 recombinant analogue of human glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) teduglutide (Gattex(®), Revestive(®)) is a novel therapy for short bowel syndrome (SBS). GLP-2 is a naturally occurring hormone that regulates the growth, proliferation and maintenance of cells lining the gastrointestinal tract. Subcutaneous teduglutide is the first long-term medical therapy approved for the treatment of adult patients with SBS who are dependent on parenteral support (parenteral nutrition and/or intravenous fluids). In a pivotal, double-blind, multicentre, phase III study in adult patients with SBS who were dependent on parenteral support, a significantly higher proportion of teduglutide 0.05 mg/kg/day recipients than placebo recipients achieved at least a 20% reduction from baseline in weekly parenteral support volume at week 20 and maintained at week 24 (primary endpoint). The overall mean reduction in weekly parenteral support volume from baseline was greater in patients who received teduglutide compared with those who received placebo. Additionally, more teduglutide-treated patients achieved at least a one-day reduction in parenteral support than those receiving placebo. Subcutaneous teduglutide had an acceptable tolerability profile; the most frequently reported adverse events were of gastrointestinal origin, consistent with the underlying disease condition and the known mechanism of action of teduglutide.
