Computational studies for pre-evaluation of pharmacological profile of gut microbiota-produced gliclazide metabolites.
Article in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Background: Gliclazide, a second-generation sulfonylurea derivative still widely used as a second-line treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus, is well known to be subject to interindividual differences in bioavailability, leading to variations in therapeutic responses among patients. Distinct gut microbiota profiles among individuals are one of the most crucial yet commonly overlooked factors contributing to the variable bioavailability of numerous drugs. In light of the shift towards a more patient-centered approach in diabetes treatment, this study aimed to conduct a pharmacoinformatic analysis of gliclazide metabolites produced by gut microbiota and assess their docking potential with the SUR1 receptor to identify compounds with improved pharmacological profiles compared to the parent drug. Methods: Ten potential gliclazide metabolites produced by the gut microbiota were screened for their pharmacological properties. Molecular docking analysis regarding SUR1 receptor was performed using Molegro Virtual Docker software. Drug-likeness properties were evaluated using DruLiTo software. Subsequently, the physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties of gliclazide and its metabolites were determined by using VolSurf+ software package. Results: All studied metabolites exhibited better intrinsic solubility than gliclazide, which is of interest, considering that solubility is a limiting factor for its bioavailability. Based on the values of investigated molecular descriptors, hydroxylated metabolites M1-M6 showed the most pronounced polar and hydrophilic properties, which could significantly contribute to their Conclusion:
