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

Clinical evidence suggests that patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP) are prone to development of diabetes (chronic pancreatitis-related diabetes; CPRD), whereas the underlying mechanisms are not fully determined. Recently, we showed that the gradual loss of functional beta-cells in a mouse model for CPRD, partial pancreatic duct ligation (PDL), results from a transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1)-triggered beta-cell epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), rather than from apoptotic beta-cell death. Here, the role of angiogenesis in CPRD-associated beta-cell EMT was addressed. We detected enhanced angiogenesis in the inflamed pancreas from CP patients by bioinformatic analysis and from PDL-mice. Inhibition of angiogenesis by specific antisera for vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2), DC101, did not alter the loss of beta-cells and the fibrotic process in PDL-pancreas. However, DC101-mediated inhibition of angiogenesis abolished pancreatitis-induced beta-cell EMT and rendered it to apoptotic beta-cell death. Thus, our data suggest that angiogenesis promotes beta-cell survival in the inflamed pancreas, while suppression of angiogenesis turns beta-cell EMT into apoptotic beta-cell death. This finding could be informative during development of intervention therapies for CPRD.
