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

A major problem after clinical autologous islet transplantation (AIT) is the difficulty in achieving insulin independence. To follow up on our demonstration in a murine model that high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) was released from islets and involved in early loss of transplanted islets, we tested the role of HMGB1 in clinical AIT. Serum HMGB1 levels from 15 AIT patients were significantly elevated during islet infusion (7.6 ± 1.2 ng/ml) and 24 h after infusion (8.0 ± 1.4 ng/ml) compared to admission levels (2.4 ± 0.6 ng/ml). The first elevation of HMGB1 was associated with islet damage, but the later elevation was not. The change in the HMGB1 level from admission to first peak (ΔHMGB1) was significantly higher in the AIT group (8.1 ± 1.1 ng/ml) than in the pancreatectomy-only control (2.2 ± 0.5 ng/ml) (p < 0.05). Circulating serum levels of soluble receptor for advanced glycation end products (sRAGE) were also elevated during islet infusion. In vitro studies demonstrated that damaged human islets released HMGB1 but not sRAGE. In terms of outcomes, the insulin-free group showed significantly lower ΔHMGB1 (5.2 ± 0.6 ng/ml) and higher ΔsRAGE (2.3 ± 0.6 ng/ml) than the insulin-dependent group (10.6 ± 1.9 ng/ml and 0.7 ± 0.2 ng/ml, respectively). The ΔHMGB1 correlated with the number of white blood cell, IP-10, EGF, and eotaxin. In conclusion, serum HMGB1 was elevated in AIT and could be associated with inflammatory reactions that deteriorate islet engraftment. Therefore, anti-HMGB1 therapy might be a candidate for further improving the outcomes of clinical AIT.
