Cytoplasmic ends of tetraspanin 7 harbour epitopes recognised by autoantibodies in type 1 diabetes.
Article in Diabetologia, 2019. 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
aims/hypothesisThe beta cell protein tetraspanin 7 is a target of autoantibodies in individuals with type 1 diabetes. The aim of this study was to identify autoantibody epitope-containing regions and key residues for autoantibody binding.
methodsAutoantibody epitope regions were identified by immunoprecipitation of luciferase-tagged single or multiple tetraspanin 7 domains using tetraspanin 7 antibody-positive sera. Subsequently, amino acids (AAs) relevant for autoantibody binding were identified by single AA mutations.
resultsIn tetraspanin 7 antibody-positive sera, antibody binding was most frequent to tetraspanin 7 proteins that contained the NH CONCLUSIONS/
interpretationWe hypothesise that conformation and, potentially, modification of protein terminal ends of tetraspanin 7 may be important for autoantibody binding in type 1 diabetes.
