Hydrogel Alginate Considerations for Improved 3D Matrix Stability and Cell Graft Viability and Function in Studying Type 1 Diabetes In Vitro.
Article in Advanced biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Biomedical devices such as islet-encapsulating systems are used for treatment of type 1 diabetes (T1D). Despite recent strides in preventing biomaterial fibrosis, challenges remain for biomaterial scaffolds due to limitations on cells contained within. The study demonstrates that proliferation and function of insulinoma (INS-1) cells as well as pancreatic rat islets may be improved in alginate hydrogels with optimized gel%, crosslinking, and stiffness. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR)-based graft phenotyping of encapsulated INS-1 cells and pancreatic islets identified a hydrogel stiffness range between 600 and 1000 Pa that improved insulin Ins and Pdx1 gene expression as well as glucose-sensitive insulin-secretion.
