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

purpose of reviewType 1 diabetes impacts 1.3 million people in the USA with a total direct lifetime medical cost of $133.7 billion. Management requires a mix of daily exogenous insulin administration and frequent glucose monitoring. Decision-making by the individual can be burdensome. RECENT

findingsBeta-cell replacement, which involves devices protecting cells from autoimmunity and allo-rejection, aims at restoring physiological glucose regulation and improving clinical outcomes in patients. Given the significant burden of T1D in the healthcare systems, cost-effectiveness analyses can drive innovation and policymaking in the area. This review presents the health economics analyses performed for donor-derived islet transplantation and the possible outcomes of stem cell-derived beta cells. Long-term cost-effectiveness of islet transplantation depends on the engraftment of these transplants, and the expenses and thresholds assumed by healthcare systems in different countries. Early health technology assessment analyses for stem cell-derived beta-cell replacement suggest manufacturing optimization is necessary to reduce upfront costs.
