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

Endothelial cells (ECs) play pivotal roles in the development and maintenance of tissue homeostasis. During development, vasculature actively involves in organ morphogenesis and functional maturation, through the secretion of angiocrine factors and extracellular matrix components. Islets of Langerhans, essential functional units of glucose homeostasis, are embedded in a dense endothelial capillary network. Islet vasculature not only supplies nutrients and oxygen to endocrine cells but also facilitate the rapid delivery of pancreatic hormones to target tissues, thereby ensuring precise glucose regulation. Diabetes mellitus is a major disease burden and is caused by islet dysfunction or depletion, often accompanied by vessel loss and dysregulation. Therefore, elucidating the regulatory mechanisms of ECs within islets hold profound implications for diabetes therapy. This review provides an overview of recent research advancements on the functional roles of ECs in islet biology, transplantation, and
