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

Islet transplantation hold promises as a cell therapy for managing type 1 diabetes, but its effectiveness remains limited due to early graft loss caused by hypoxia and associated stressors. Identifying strategies to enhance islet resilience is imperative for improving clinical outcomes. We hypothesized that mitigating this injury requires shifting focus from augmenting oxygen supply to reducing the cellular metabolic demand. Adenosine (AD), an endogenous purine nucleoside with immunomodulatory and metabolic regulatory roles, emerges as a candidate to mitigate these challenges. This study evaluates the impact of AD on human islet (HI) viability, function, and metabolic suppression under hypoxic stress (1% O
