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

Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) is a heterogeneous disease sharing some phenotypic, genetic, and immunological features with both type 1 and 2 diabetes. Patients with LADA have a relatively slow autoimmune process and more residual islet β-cell function at onset, allowing a time window to protect residual islet β cells and delay or inhibit disease progression. It is crucial to discover various heterogeneous factors affecting islet β-cell function for precise LADA therapy. In this review, we first describe the natural history of LADA. Thereafter, we summarize β-cell function-related heterogeneous factors in LADA, including the age of onset, body mass index, genetic background, and immune, lifestyle, and environmental factors. In parallel, we evaluate the impact of current hypoglycemic agents and immune intervention therapies for islet β-cell protection. Finally, we discuss the opportunities and challenges of LADA treatment from the perspective of islet β-cell function protection.
