Clinical islet cell transplantation. Are we there yet?
Review in International journal of pancreatology : official journal of the International Association of Pancreatology, 1998. 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
Diabetes mellitus is perhaps the most devastating chronic disease of all time. A brief history of the evolution of treatment modalities is provided, culminating in the rationale for the physiologic replacement of a functioning beta-cell mass by transplantation. Vascularized pancreas transplantation is discussed briefly as an introduction to the transplantation of the isolated islet. A detailed review of the current state of human islet transplantation for the cure of diabetes is then described. Finally, areas for future development are highlighted.
