Visualization of Early Engraftment in Clinical Islet Transplantation by Positron-Emission Tomography

Eich, Torsten, Eriksson, Olof, Lundgren, Torbjörn·2007·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

To the Editor: Although islet transplantation is an option for patients with type 1 diabetes, even those who become insulin-independent after engraftment have islet-graft function that is estimated...

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • It is crucial to reduce the stress response within islets immediately following transplantation to reduce initial cell death, which can result in significant graft loss.

    “Specifically, it is crucial to reduce the stress response within islets immediately following transplantation to reduce initial cell death, which can result in significant graft loss.56”
  • Early investigation of primary human islet transplants and animal studies demonstrated that 50% or more of the islet graft was lost during the first few days after transplantation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
