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

Pancreatic islet transplantation has received widespread attention as a promising treatment for type 1 diabetes. However, islets for transplantation are subject to damage from a number of sources, including ischemic injury during removal and delivery of the donor pancreas, enzymatic digestion during islet isolation, and reperfusion injury after transplantation in the recipient. Here we found that protein fractions secreted by mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were capable of activating preserved islets. A conditioned medium from the supernatant obtained by culturing adipose tissue MSCs (derived from wild-type Lewis rats) was prepared for 2 days in serum-free medium. Luc-Tg rat islets to which an organ preservation solution was added were then incubated at 4°C with fractions of various molecular weights prepared from the conditioned medium. Under the treatment with some of the fractions, by 4 days the relative luminescence intensities (representative of the ATP levels of the cold-preserved islets) had increased to over 150% of their initial values. Our novel system may be able to restore isolated islets to the condition they were in before transport, culture, and transplantation.
