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

Oral drug administration remains the preferred route for patients and health care providers. Delivery of macromolecules through this route remains challenging because of limitations imposed by the transport across the gastrointestinal epithelium and the dynamic and degradative environment. Here, we present the development of a delivery system that combines physical (microneedle) and nonphysical (enhancer) modes of drug delivery enhancement for a macromolecule in a large animal model. Inspired by the thorny-headed intestinal worm, we report a dynamic omnidirectional mucoadhesive microneedle system capable of prolonged gastric mucosa fixation. Moreover, we incorporate sodium
