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

Type B insulin resistance (TBIR) is a rare, often fulminant form of insulin resistance caused by autoantibodies against the insulin receptor. If left untreated, its mortality is high. Various immunosuppressive regimens have shown efficacy, but treatment effects are variable and time-delayed, and drug-induced complications may arise. We report a patient with TBIR arising as a complication of Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome. Stable remission of TBIR was achieved through allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) over a follow-up period of more than 1.5 years. We thus demonstrate that PBSCT can be considered a treatment option in TBIR where conventional immunosuppressive therapy is ineffective or contraindicated.
