Comparison of the acute biological action of injectable salmon calcitonin and an injectable and oral calcitonin analogue.
Trial report in Calcified tissue international, 1994. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 most countries, calcitonin is available in the form of injections, and less frequently as an intranasal spray. An oral route of administration should improve compliance. In a preliminary feasibility study, we have compared the acute biological action of injectable salmon calcitonin (50 IU), with the injectable calcitonin analogue ASC 710 (0.2 mg) and oral ASC 710 (20 mg) in 6 patients suffering from active Paget's disease of bone. The intensity and duration of the biological response were not significantly different in the 3 modes of therapy. In conclusion, the oral calcitonin analogue ASC 710 possesses an antiresorbing activity in Paget's disease comparable to that of an injection of salmon calcitonin which demonstrates that it can cross the intestinal barrier.
