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

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) could cause type 1 diabetes (T1D). However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. We immunohistochemically analyzed pancreatic specimens from three individuals with ICI-related T1D, and their histopathological data were compared those from three patients who had received ICI therapy but did not develop T1D (non-T1D) and seven normal glucose-tolerant subjects as control subjects. All ICI-related T1D patients had susceptible HLA haplotypes. In ICI-related T1D, the β-cell area decreased and the α-cell area increased compared with non-T1D and control subjects. The number of CD3-positive cells around islets increased in ICI-related T1D and non-T1D compared with control subjects, while the number of CD68-positive cells around islets increased in ICI-related T1D compared with non-T1D and control subjects. The expression ratios of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) on islets decreased in non-T1D and almost completely disappeared in ICI-related T1D, while PD-L1 expression was observed in most cells of pancreatic islets in control subjects. This study, therefore, indicates that ICI therapy itself could reduce PD-L1 expression on islets in all subjects, which may be related to β-cell vulnerability. In addition, we showed that absence of PD-L1 expression on β-cells, genetic susceptibility, and infiltration of macrophages as well as T lymphocytes around islets might be responsible for T1D onset.
