Rhodotorula glutinis as a living cell liposome to deliver polypeptide drugs in vivo.
Article in Drug delivery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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 potential advantages of recombinant microbes as oral drug carriers for curing diseases have attracted much attention. The use of recombinant oil microbes as living cell liposomes to carry polypeptide drugs may be an ideal polypeptide oral drug delivery system. GM4-ΔTS was constructed by LFH-PCR from Rhodotorula glutinis GM4, which was screened and preserved in our laboratory, and then transferred into choline-phosphate cytidylyltransferase (CCT), which is a rate-limiting enzyme for lecithin synthesis. The results showed that the CCT gene was highly expressed in the GM4-ΔTS strain and could significantly increase fatty acid and lecithin contents in GM4-ΔTS-PGK1-CCT. Moreover, insulin, H22-LP, and α-MSH were successfully introduced into cells in vitro, and the strain no longer proliferated in vivo, for safe and controllable polypeptide drug delivery. In vivo, normal mice were intragastrically administered with recombinant strains carrying insulin and α-MSH, and different levels of polypeptide drugs were detected in serum and tissue, respectively. Then, recombinant strains carrying insulin were administered to type II diabetes mellitus mice. The results showed that the strains could effectively reduce blood glucose levels in mice, which indicated that the recombinant strains could carry insulin into the body, and the drug effect was remarkable. Therefore, recombinant GM4-ΔTS-PGK1-CCT strains were successfully used as living cell liposomes to carry insulin, H22-LP, and α-MSH peptides into the body for the first time; additionally, these strains have enhanced safety, controllability, and efficacy.
