Review in Experimental hematology, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT00873925 (Transfusion of Autologous Umbilical Cord Blood Plus Vitamin D and Omega 3 Fatty Acids to Preserve Beta Cell Function in Children With Recent Onset Type 1 Diabetes - A Pilot Study), which is not on this map. Cited by 34 papers.

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.

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.

Abstract

objectiveThe physical, emotional, and economic costs of type 1 diabetes (T1D) mandate continued efforts to develop effective strategies to prevent or reverse the disease. Herein, we describe the scientific and therapeutic rationale underlying efforts utilizing umbilical cord blood (UCB) as a therapy for ameliorating the progression of this autoimmune disease. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe recently embarked on a pilot study to document the safety and potential efficacy of autologous UCB infusion in subjects with T1D. Under this protocol, patients recently diagnosed with the disease and for whom autologous cord blood is stored, undergo infusion. Studies are performed before infusion and every 3 to 6 months postinfusion for immunologic and metabolic assessment. To date, 15 autologous infusions have been performed.

resultsPreliminary observations suggest that autologous cord blood transfusion is safe and provides some slowing of the loss of endogenous insulin production in children with T1D. Mechanistic studies demonstrate that umbilical cord blood contains highly functional populations of regulatory T cells (Treg) and that increased Treg populations may be found in the peripheral blood of subjects more than 6 months after cord blood infusion. We provide the rationale for cord blood-based therapies, a summary of our initial protocol, and plans for future studies designed to explore the potential of cord blood-derived regulatory T cells to treat T1D.

conclusionsProlonged follow-up and additional mechanistic efforts are urgently needed to determine if umbilical cord blood-derived stem cells can be used as part of safe and effective therapies for T1D.
