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

Targeting of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R), expressed on the surface of pancreatic β-cells, is of great interest for the development of advanced therapies for diabetes and diagnostics for insulinoma. We report the conjugation of exendin-4 (Ex-4), an approved drug to treat type 2 diabetes, to poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) to obtain more stable and effective GLP-1R ligands. Exendin-4 modified at Lysine-27 with PEG4-maleimide was conjugated to γ-PGA functionalized with furan, in different molar ratios, exploiting a chemoselective Diels-Alder cycloaddition. The γ-PGA presenting the highest number of conjugated Ex-4 molecules (average 120 per polymeric chain) showed a double affinity towards GLP-1R with respect to exendin per se, paving the way to improved therapeutic and diagnostic applications.
