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

Type 1 diabetes is a common, severe chronic autoimmune disease that is characterized by the progressive and insidious loss of self-tolerance to the insulin-producing pancreatic islet β-cells. This loss of self-tolerance leads to the destruction of β-cells and the development of overt hyperglycaemia at diagnosis. The incidence and prevalence of type 1 diabetes is rapidly increasing worldwide, and this has led to intensive efforts to develop immunotherapies to induce remission of the disease and improve clinical outcomes. Immunotherapy aims to restore self-tolerance, resulting in the downregulation of autoimmune responses to pancreatic self-antigens and arrested ongoing β-cell destruction. When combined with replacement of the lost insulin-producing cells, this may lead to the restoration of euglycaemia. In this review, we discuss the current knowledge of the immunopathogenesis of type 1 diabetes and how this information has been translated into clinical trials. We also discuss next-generation combination immunotherapies that may be administered as adjuvant therapy at time of diagnosis.
