Pancreatic transplantation at the University of Pittsburgh.
Article in Clinical transplants, 2004. 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
Campath-1H preconditioning with tacrolimus monotherapy is an effective immunosuppressive regimen for pancreas transplantation, with acceptable patient and graft survival rates early after transplantation. Rejection rates are low under this protocol if the tacrolimus level is kept consistently >10 ng/ml. This immunosuppressive protocol, combined with recent technical refinements, has resulted in lower rates of thrombosis and overall complications. Pancreatic transplantation en-bloc with visceral grafts has the following unique features: Diabetes is a rare indication, and HLA matching is not required. The gland is immunologically protected by the simultaneously transplanted visceral organs. Disease gravity, surgical complexity and gut alloimmunity influence the overall pancreatic allograft survival. The current UNOS listing criteria and data registry should be modified for obvious logistic and scientific reasons.
