Islet Transplantation in Children.
Review in Current gastroenterology reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purpose of reviewTransplantation of the islets of Langerhans or the pancreas aims to restore blood sugar control. We review both forms of transplantation in children. RECENT
findingsAllogenic islet transplantation typically in to the liver via the portal vein may be a potential alternative to pancreas transplantation in the future. Autologous islet transplantation after total pancreatectomy is effective for debilitating symptoms of recurrent and chronic pancreatitis. Chronic pancreatitis in children is most often related to genetic mutations but is otherwise similar to adults with eventual exocrine and endocrine failure. Removal of the pancreas ameliorates pain, and islet transplantation preserves endocrine function to the extent allowed by the damage sustained by the pancreas from chronic inflammation. Despite the complexity of the operative procedure, the outcome of total pancreatectomy and autologous islet transplantation in children has been excellent including quality of life.
