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

In this contribution to the Orations - New Horizons of the Journal of Controlled Release, I discuss the research that we have conducted on gut hormone stimulation as a therapeutic strategy in oral peptide delivery. One of the greatest challenges in oral drug delivery involves the development of new drug delivery systems that enable the absorption of therapeutic peptides into the systemic circulation at therapeutically relevant concentrations. This scenario is especially challenging in the treatment of chronic diseases (such as type 2 diabetes mellitus), wherein daily injections are often needed. However, for certain peptides, there may be an alternative in drug delivery to meet the need for increased peptide bioavailability; this is the case for gut hormone mimetics (including glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 or GLP-2). One plausible alternative for improved oral delivery of these peptides is the co-stimulation of the endogenous secretion of the hormone to reach therapeutic levels of the peptide. This oration will be focused on studies conducted on the stimulation of gut hormones secreted from enteroendocrine L cells in the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders, including a critical discussion of the limitations and future perspectives of implementing this approach in the clinical setting.
