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

purpose of reviewDiabetes results from inadequate functional mass of pancreatic beta-cells and therefore replenishing with new glucose-responsive beta-cells is an important therapeutic option. In addition to replication of pre-existing beta-cells, new beta-cells can be produced from differentiated adult cells using in-vitro or in-vivo approaches. This review will summarize recent advances in in-vivo generation of beta-cells from cells that are not beta-cells (neogenesis) and discuss ways to overcome the limitations of this process. RECENT

findingsMultiple groups have shown that adult pancreatic ducts, acinar and even endocrine cells exhibit cellular plasticity and can differentiate into beta-cells in vivo. Several different approaches, including misexpression of transcription factors and tissue injury, have induced neogenesis of insulin-expressing cells in vivo and ameliorated diabetes. SUMMARY: Recent breakthroughs demonstrating cellular plasticity of adult pancreatic cells to form new beta-cells are a positive first step towards developing in-vivo regeneration-based therapy for diabetes. Currently, neogenesis processes are inefficient and do not generate sufficient amounts of beta-cells required to normalize hyperglycemia. However, an improved understanding of mechanisms regulating neogenesis of beta-cells from adult pancreatic cells and of their maturation into functional glucose-responsive beta-cells can make therapies based on in-vivo regeneration a reality.
