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

Conventionally, the intestinal permeability of drugs is evaluated using cell monolayer models that lack morphological, physiological and architectural features, as well as realistic neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) expression. In addition, it is time-consuming, expensive and excessive to use a large number of mice for large-scale screening of FcRn-targeted candidates. For preclinical validation, it is critical to use suitable models that mimic the human intestine; the porcine ex vivo model is widely used for intestinal permeability studies, due to its physiological and anatomical similarities to humans. This study intended to analyze the potential to measure the intestinal permeability of FcRn-targeted substances using a porcine ex vivo platform, which is able to analyze 96 samples at the same time. In addition, the platform allows the screening of FcRn-targeting substances for transmucosal delivery, taking into consideration (cross-species) receptor-ligand binding kinetics. After analyzing the morphology of the porcine tissue, the FcRn expression across the gastrointestinal tract was verified. By studying the stomach, duodenum and jejunum, it was demonstrated that FcRn expression is maintained for up to 7 days. When evaluating the duodenum permeability of free engineered human albumin variants, it was shown that the variant with the mutation K573P (KP) is more efficiently transported. Given this, the porcine ex vivo platform was revealed to be a potential model for the screening of FcRn-targeted oral drug formulations.
