Controlled Delivery of Bile Acids to the Colon.

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
introductionBile acids, such as chenodeoxycholic acid, play an important role in digestion but are also involved in intestinal motility, fluid homeostasis, and humoral activity. Colonic delivery of sodium chenodeoxycholate (CDC) has demonstrated clinical efficacy in treating irritable bowel syndrome with constipation but was associated with a high frequency of abdominal pain. We hypothesized that these adverse effects were triggered by local super-physiological CDC levels caused by an unfavorable pharmacokinetic profile of the delayed release formulation.
methodsWe developed novel release matrix systems based on hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) for sustained release of CDC. These included standard HPMC formulations as well as bi-layered formulations to account for potential delivery failures due to low colonic fluid in constipated patients. We evaluated CDC release profiles in silico (pharmacokinetic modeling), in vitro and in vivo in swine (pharmacokinetics, rectal manometry).
resultsFor the delayed release formulation in vitro release studies demonstrated pH triggered dose dumping which was associated with giant colonic contractions in vivo. Release from the bi-layered HPMC systems provided controlled release of CDC while minimizing the frequency of giant contractions and providing enhanced exposure as compared to standard HPMC formulations in vivo. DISCUSSION: Bi-phasic CDC release could help treat constipation while mitigating abdominal pain observed in previous clinical trials. Further studies are necessary to demonstrate the therapeutic potential of these systems in humans.
