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

Peptide drugs have the advantages of target specificity and good drugability and have become one of the most increasingly important hotspots in new drug research in biomedical sciences. However, peptide drugs generally have low bioavailability and metabolic stability, and therefore, the modification of existing peptide drugs for the purpose of improving stability and retaining activity is of viable importance. It is known that glucagon is an effective therapy for treating severe hypoglycemia, but its short half-life prevents its wide therapeutic use. Herein, we report that combined unnatural residues and long fatty acid conjugation afford potent α/sulfono-γ-AApeptide hybrid analogues of Glucagon with enhanced stability and prolonged in vivo activity. This strategy could be adopted to develop stabilized analogues of other short-acting bioactive peptides.
