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

Aims: To identify N-glycan structures on immunoglobulin A related to type 1 diabetes mellitus among children at the disease onset and adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Methods: Human polyclonal IgA N-glycans were profiled using hydrophilic interaction ultra performance liquid chromatography in two cohorts. The first cohort consisted of 62 children at the onset of type 1 diabetes mellitus and 86 of their healthy siblings. The second cohort contained 84 adults with the disease and 84 controls. Associations between N-glycans and type 1 diabetes mellitus were tested using linear mixed model for the paediatric cohort, or general linear model for the adult cohort. False discovery rate was controlled by Benjamini-Hochberg method modified by Li and Ji. Results: In children, an increase in a single oligomannose N-glycan was associated with type 1 diabetes mellitus (B = 0.529, p = 0.0067). N-glycome of the adults displayed increased branching (B = 0.466, p = 0.0052), trigalactosylation (B = 0.466, p = 0.0052), trisialylation (B = 0.629, p < 0.001), and mannosylation (B = 0.604, p < 0.001). The strongest association with the disease was a decrease in immunoglobulin A core fucosylation (B = -0.900, p < 0.001). Conclusions: Changes in immunoglobulin N-glycosylation patterns in type 1 diabetes point to disruptions in immunoglobulin A catabolism and dysregulated inflammatory capabilities of the antibody, potentially impacting immune responses and inflammation.
