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

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) arises from autoimmune destruction of pancreatic β-cells, leading to lifelong dependence on exogenous insulin. Clinical islet transplantation offers a potential cure by restoring endogenous insulin secretion; however, its success is critically limited by poor post-transplant vascularization and oxygen deprivation, which cause over 70% of transplanted islets to undergo early necrosis or apoptosis. To address these challenges, we developed an injectable, biodegradable dual-functional hydrogel composed of oxidized hyaluronic acid (OHA) and carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC). This polysaccharide-based platform co-delivers vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and an oxygen-carrying perfluorotributylamine (PFTBA) nanoemulsion, enabling simultaneous enhancement of angiogenesis and oxygenation within the graft microenvironment. The OHA/CMC hydrogel exhibited excellent biocompatibility, tunable gelation and sustained release of both oxygen and VEGF.
