Staying Functional Through Connection and Adaptation: When Islets Inspire Islet Biologists.
Review in Diabetes, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
In response to the lockdowns and travel bans during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, Peter C. Butler at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), started a virtual islet biology seminar series. After the authors of this article joined him as co-organizers, this initiative became the Islet Research Seminar Series (IRSS). Like islets of Langerhans adapt to their changing environment, the islet biology community quickly embraced this new format. The IRSS evolved into a lasting scientific forum that convenes weekly and is attended by islet biologists from the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Israel. The series covers a range of topics in islet biology, with presentations from scientists representing all career stages. It has proven particularly valuable for trainees and early-stage investigators in exposing them to a variety of topics in islet biology without travel required and facilitating more spontaneous interactions with senior scientists than at in-person meetings. While the online format is not meant to replace live scientific conferences, we believe that the IRSS plays a unique role in keeping the islet biology community connected and abreast of the most recent scientific discoveries in our field. The success of this platform stands as a testament to the scientific community to adapt and thrive through challenges. This article is dedicated to Peter C. Butler, UCLA, who initiated the IRSS.
