Pancreatic Transplantation: Beta Cell Replacement.
Article in Current treatment options in gastroenterology, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Diabetes is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Complications of diabetes including renal failure, retinopathy, neuropathy, and cardiovascular disease limit both survival and quality of life. Pancreatic transplantation can restore euglycemia thereby stabilizing or even reversing secondary complications of diabetes as well as improving quality of life particularly in patients with labile diabetes. Recent evidence also shows an improved survival in diabetic patients that undergo pancreatic transplantation when combined with a kidney transplant. Pancreatic transplantation should more properly be referred to as beta cell replacement as the field today encompasses both whole organ and islet cell transplantation. We have outlined herein the indications and contraindications to islet or whole organ pancreas transplantation and we have described periprocedure care and short- and long-term prognosis.
