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

Mixed hematopoietic chimerism after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) can modulate the immune system and induce tolerance to allogeneic tissues. However, bone marrow conditioning-related toxicities preclude wider adoption of HCT for transplant allotolerance. We sought agents that reduced conditioning intensity, while promoting durable mixed chimerism after HCT across complete major histocompatibility complex (MHC) mismatch in diabetic mice, permitting islet allotransplantation and diabetes reversal. We systematically tested baricitinib (JAK1/2 inhibitor), venetoclax (Bcl2 inhibitor), and αCD47 antibody, agents in current clinical use, and quantified hematopoietic chimerism after HCT. Combined with αCD117 antibody, transient T cell depletion, and just 10 centigray (cGy) total body irradiation (TBI), these agents enabled durable mixed chimerism and matching allo-islet tolerance, to cure diabetes without evidence of GVHD. Thus, we have developed a conditioning regimen to promote allogeneic mixed hematopoietic chimerism and transplanted islet allotolerance that minimizes conditioning radiation and cures diabetes, a significant achievement.
