Early Detection of Pediatric Type 1 Diabetes: The Expanding Role of Screening.
Review in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a common chronic autoimmune disease in childhood, often presenting abruptly and frequently complicated by diabetic ketoacidosis at diagnosis. T1D develops through well-defined presymptomatic stages characterized by islet autoimmunity and progressive dysglycemia, offering a window for early identification. This narrative review summarizes current evidence on screening for T1D in children and adolescents, focusing on target populations, screening strategies, and methodological approaches for autoantibody detection. Data from major international programs involving familial, high-risk, and general population screening are discussed, highlighting their impact on reducing diabetic ketoacidosis at onset, improving metabolic outcomes, and facilitating structured follow-up and family education. Advances in assay technologies, including electrochemiluminescence, multiplex platforms, and novel ultrasensitive methods, have enhanced the feasibility and accuracy of large-scale screening. The review also examines the public health implications, cost-effectiveness, and ethical considerations of implementing population-based screening, particularly in light of emerging disease-modifying therapies such as teplizumab. Overall, available evidence supports screening as a meaningful strategy to shift T1D diagnosis from an acute emergency to a predictable clinical trajectory, with potential benefits extending from individual patient outcomes to healthcare system sustainability.
