Experimental approaches for high-resolution in vivo imaging of islet of Langerhans biology.
Review in Current diabetes reports, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Under physiological conditions and in the pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus systemic influences play a substantial role for function and survival of cells of the islet of Langerhans. Therefore, in vivo studies to understand islet biology are indispensible and imaging techniques are increasingly used for this purpose. Among the diverse imaging modalities currently only laser scanning microscopy (LSM) allows resolution and visualization of individual cells and cellular processes. To overcome limited tissue penetration and working distance of LSM and enable in vivo investigations of islet cell physiology, various experimental approaches have been developed. Especially, the recently developed imaging platforms have significantly improved the possibility to study islets at a cellular level in vivo, and provided novel insight into islet biology in health and disease. The various approaches, their applications, and reported results, as well as their limitations are reviewed in this article.
