Analysis of B cell subsets following pancreatic islet cell transplantation in a patient with type 1 diabetes by cytometric fingerprinting.
Article in Journal of immunological methods, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Manual gating of bivariate plots remains the most frequently used data analysis method in flow cytometry. However, gating is operator-dependent and cumbersome, particularly with the increasing complexity of modern multicolor immunophenotyping data. A method that can remove operator bias, enable systematic and thorough analysis of complex high-dimensional data, correlate temporal changes in different subsets and lead to biomarker discovery is needed. Here we apply such a method, called cytometric fingerprinting (CF), to data obtained on peripheral blood B cells from an adult patient with type-1 diabetes who underwent pancreatic islet transplantation. We establish that CF can be used to analyze longitudinal trends in immunophenotypic data, and show that results from CF are comparable to those obtained with traditional gating methods. Both methods reveal the appearance of transitional B cells and subsequent accumulation of more mature B cells following immunosuppression and transplantation. This pattern is consistent with a temporally ordered process of B cell auto-reconstitution. We also show the comparative efficiency of fingerprinting in recognizing relative changes in B cell subsets with respect to time, its ability to couple the data with statistical methods (agglomerative clustering) and its potential to define novel subsets.
