Autoantibodies in recent onset type-1 diabetic patients to a Mr 60K microsomal hepatic protein: new evidence for autoantibodies to the type-2 glucose transporter.

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
Here we describe the presence of IgG antibodies, in the sera of patients presenting with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), that react in Western blots with a 60-kD protein (Mr 60K) from rat hepatic microsomal extracts. Sera from 60 IDDM patients were screened and 31.6% were positive for the Mr 60K band. This antibody reactivity was indistinguishable in terms of both molecular weight and isoelectric point (pI 5.4) from that described in some patients presenting with autoimmune hepatitis who may also develop IDDM. We hypothesized that the type-2 glucose transporter (Glut-2) that is expressed on both hepatocytes and pancreatic beta cells could be a putative target for the detected antibodies. A polyclonal antisera to rat Glut-2 used in the liver microsome Western blot identified a 60-kD band superimposable upon that evidenced by IDDM sera. Antisera to Glut-2 successfully inhibited the binding of the patient's IgGs to liver microsomes, further suggesting that the two proteins may be identical. Using protein extracts from a rat insulinoma cell line (RIN) transfected with the human Glut-2 cDNA, further evidence was obtained suggesting that these IDDM IgGs are specific for the human Glut-2 transporter.
