Effect of High-Dose Oral Insulin in Children With Stage 1 Type 1 Diabetes: The Fr1da Insulin Intervention Randomized Controlled Trial.
Trial report in Diabetes care, 2026. 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
objectiveOral administration of an antigen can induce immunological tolerance. Insulin is an autoantigen in childhood type 1 diabetes (T1D). We tested the effect of treatment with high-dose oral insulin on disease progression and immune response to insulin in children with stage 1 T1D. RESEARCH DESIGN AND
methodsWe conducted a phase 2 randomized placebo-controlled double-blind trial in children with stage 1 T1D who received daily oral insulin (7.5 mg/day for 3 months and 67.5 mg/day for 9 months; n = 110) or placebo (n = 110) for 12 months. The coprimary outcomes were 1) time from baseline to dysglycemia or clinical diabetes and 2) increased immune response to insulin within 12 months of treatment (assessed in the first 90 participants).
resultsOf 220 participants (112 girls; median age 4.8 years; interquartile range 3.6, 6.2), 179 completed the trial. Dysglycemia or diabetes developed in 87 participants (46 receiving oral insulin and 41 receiving placebo; hazard ratio 1.07; 95% CI 0.66-1.73; P = 0.74). The 5-year progression rate was 40% (95% CI 30-51%) in each group. A modest treatment interaction was found with the INS rs689 genotype (P = 0.03). Increased immune response to insulin was observed in 11 (25%) of 44 participants in the oral insulin group and 13 (31%) of 42 in the placebo group (P = 0.63). Oral insulin was well tolerated. No significant study-related adverse events occurred.
conclusionsIn children with stage 1 T1D, 1 year of high-dose oral insulin did not alter progression to dysglycemia or diabetes or immune response to insulin.
