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

objectiveThe intestinal luminal pH profile varies from stomach to rectum and becomes disrupted in diseases. However, little is known about the pH dependence of incretin hormone secretion, with most in vitro studies having failed to consider this modulatory factor or having used nonphysiological buffer systems. Here, we report the extracellular pH (pHe) dependence of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) exocytosis from L cells.

methodsThe pHe dependence of GLP-1 release from GLUTag cells and murine ex vivo primary gut cultures was detected by ELISA. GLP-1 release was measured over a range of pHe under a physiological (CO

resultsGLP-1 secretion from L cells was pHe-dependent and stimulated under alkaline conditions. In the absence of glucose or extracellular calcium, secretion remained at a pHe-insensitive baseline. pHi followed changes in pHe, but the relationship was offset to more alkaline levels in the absence of CO

conclusionsGLP-1 secretion is sensitive to pHe and the buffer present. Exploiting this mechanism therapeutically may benefit patients with obesity.
