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

Introduction: Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease characterized by T cell-mediated destruction of pancreatic β cells. Current insulin therapy does not address autoimmune pathology or restore endogenous β-cell function, highlighting the need for disease-modifying strategies. Methods: We developed a combination therapy integrating a proton pump inhibitor (PPI; omeprazole) with a non-Fc-binding anti-CD3 F(ab') Results: Combination therapy restored normoglycemia without exogenous insulin, reduced lymphocytic infiltration in pancreatic islets, and preserved endogenous insulin secretion. Treatment decreased pathogenic CD4 Conclusions: Concurrent modulation of β-cell function and autoimmune immunity achieved sustained glycemic control in T1D models. The use of clinically approved agents supports the translational potential of this non-insulin-dependent therapeutic strategy.
