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

Amylin is a glucoregulatory peptide hormone discovered in 1986. Almost 20 years later, pramlintide, a human amylin analogue, emerged as the first amylin-based drug, approved as an adjunct treatment to insulin for type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Despite its effects on multiple organ systems, the therapeutic potential of amylin has remained relatively underexplored until recently, when growing interest in amylin has prompted advancement of several amylin-based therapies towards clinical use. This Review contextualizes the evolving therapeutic potential of amylin, focusing on recent preclinical and clinical data, amylin receptor pharmacology and its broader biological effects. We discuss the potential and challenges of developing amylin-based treatments for cardiometabolic disease, including milestones in drug development of amylin, and its combination with additional molecules as part of the future landscape of therapies for patients with diabetes or obesity.
