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

aims/hypothesisNon-invasive imaging of the pancreatic beta cell mass (BCM) requires the identification of novel and specific beta cell biomarkers. We have developed a systems biology approach to the identification of promising beta cell markers.

methodsWe followed a functional genomics strategy based on massive parallel signal sequencing (MPSS) and microarray data obtained in human islets, purified primary rat beta cells, non-beta cells and INS-1E cells to identify promising beta cell markers. Candidate biomarkers were validated and screened using established human and macaque (Macacus cynomolgus) tissue microarrays.

resultsAfter a series of filtering steps, 12 beta cell-specific membrane proteins were identified. For four of the proteins we selected or produced antibodies targeting specifically the human proteins and their splice variants; all four candidates were confirmed as islet-specific in human pancreas. Two splice variants of FXYD domain containing ion transport regulator 2 (FXYD2), a regulating subunit of the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, were identified as preferentially present in human pancreatic islets. The presence of FXYD2gammaa was restricted to pancreatic islets and selectively detected in pancreatic beta cells. Analysis of human fetal pancreas samples showed the presence of FXYD2gammaa at an early stage (15 weeks). Histological examination of pancreatic sections from individuals with type 1 diabetes or sections from pancreases of streptozotocin-treated Macacus cynomolgus monkeys indicated a close correlation between loss of FXYD2gammaa and loss of insulin-positive cells. CONCLUSIONS/

interpretationWe propose human FXYD2gammaa as a novel beta cell-specific biomarker.
