Induction of Artificial Pancreas in Liver Transplant Recipients: Preliminary Experience with an Insightful Message.
Article in Annals of transplantation, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
BACKGROUND We investigated the impact of using an artificial pancreas for glycemic control in liver transplant recipients. MATERIAL AND METHODS Between January 2014 and December 2016, glycemic control using an artificial pancreas was performed 13 times. The target blood glucose level was set at 80-110 mg/dL. We retrospectively analyzed the clinical course, including achievement rate of the target blood glucose range. RESULTS For perioperative glycemic control, an artificial pancreas was used 9 times. The total insulin dose and achievement rate of the target blood glucose level were 113.9±51.4 U and 23.7±15.6%, per 24 h, respectively. Additionally, recipients with infectious complications (n=2) and rejection treated with methylprednisolone pulse therapy (n=2) received glycemic control using an artificial pancreas. The total insulin dose and achievement rate of the target blood glucose level were 156.5±57.5 U and 20.2±20.0% per 24 h, respectively. No hypoglycemia occurred during this period. CONCLUSIONS Application of an artificial pancreas for liver transplant recipients was safe, with no hypoglycemia. The results suggest that occurrence of marked insulin resistance in liver transplant recipients should be prevented for better outcomes.
