Graft failure after allogeneic islet transplantation in a patient with type 1 diabetes and a high anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody titer.

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
Pancreatic islet transplantation is a β-cell replacement therapy for people with insulin-deficient diabetes who have difficulty in glycemic control and suffer from frequent severe hypoglycemia. However, the number of islet transplantations carried out is still limited in Asia. We report a case of allogeneic islet transplantation in a 45-year-old Japanese man with type 1 diabetes. Although the islet transplantation was successfully carried out, graft loss was observed on the 18th day. Immunosuppressants were used in accordance with the protocol, and donor-specific anti-human leukocyte antigen antibodies were not detected. Autoimmunity relapse was also not observed. However, the patient had a high titer of anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody from before the islet transplantation, and autoimmunity might thus have affected the β-cells in the transplanted islet. The evidence is still scarce to reach conclusions, and further data accumulation is required to enable proper patient selection before islet transplantation.
