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

Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is a progressive inflammatory disease characterized by irreversible destruction of pancreatic secretory parenchyma, fibrosis, exocrine atrophy, and endocrine insufficiency leading to diabetes. Secondary diabetes occurring in CP subsequent to destruction of pancreatic β-cells is distinct, since it involves β-cell dysfunction amidst an inflammatory milieu. Even though considerable knowledge is available on the pathophysiology and clinical management of CP, relatively much less is known about the molecular events leading to β-cell dysfunction. Investigators have demonstrated that altered morphology, reduced β-cell mass, and β-cell numbers result in endocrine insufficiency. However, recent reports and our observations suggest that β-cell dysfunction develops in the early stages of CP while clinical diabetes manifests later, when there is profound fibrosis. In the early stages, altered internal milieu and physiology arising due to inflammation and release of cytokines might lead to deranged signaling pathways and islet dysfunction. Subsequently, development of fibrosis causes islet destruction. This suggests that endocrine deficiency in CP is multifactorial. Although the role of transcription factors (Pdx-1, MafA, NeuroD) on β-cell functions is understood, alterations in internal milieu of pancreatic tissue that affects β-cell functions in CP has not been elucidated. In this review, we summarize the factors that have an effect on islet functions. Understanding molecular events of β-cell dysfunction in CP can lead to the development of targeted preventive and therapeutic modalities.
