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

In islet transplantation, one of the major obstacles to optimal engraftment is the loss of islet natural vascularization and islet-specific extracellular matrix (ECM) during the islet isolation process. Thus, transplanted islets must re-establish nutritional and physical support through formation of new blood vessels and new ECM. To promote this critical process, we developed an elastin-based vasculogenic and ECM-promoting scaffold engineered for extrahepatic islet transplantation. The scaffold by design consisted of type I collagen (Coll) blended with 20wt% of elastin (E) shown to promote angiogenesis as well as
