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

backgroundType 1 autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is pancreatic manifestation of IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD), characterized by pancreatic lymphoplasmacytic infiltration. Despite this well-known pathological feature, the immune microenvironment and the complex cellular interactions within the pancreas in AIP remain poorly understood. This study aimed to characterize the local immune features of the pancreas in AIP patients.

methodsWe employed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), immune receptor repertoire sequencing (scTCR/BCR-seq), and spatial transcriptome sequencing on biopsy samples from lesion tissues of AIP patients. Flow cytometry, multicolour immunofluorescence, and functional assays were performed to validate the findings from bioinformatics analysis.

resultsOur results revealed an increased presence of IgD

conclusionsThese findings highlight significant alterations in the pancreatic immune microenvironment in AIP and propose a potential pathogenic model involving ABCs, Tfhs, and macrophages. This model provides valuable insights that could inform the development of targeted therapeutic strategies for AIP.
