Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Background: This study explored the details of the immune response after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) treatment in type 1 diabetes mellitus. Methods: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 18 patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus were taken at baseline and 12 months after AHSCT or insulin-only therapy. The lymphocyte proliferation, mRNA expression and secretion of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines belonging to T-helper type 1 (Th1), T-helper type 17 (Th17) and regulatory T (Treg) cells in PBMC culture supernatants were assessed. Results: Compared with patients receiving insulin-only treatment, the patients receiving AHSCT treatment showed better residual C-peptide secretion, lower anti-GAD titers and less exogenous insulin dosages after 12 months of follow-up. AHSCT treatment was associated with significantly reduced Th1 and Th17 cell proportions as well as decreased IFN-γ, IL-2, IL-12p40 and IL-17A levels in the PBMC culture supernatants (all P < 0.05). Although there was no significant Treg cell expansion after AHSCT treatment, we observed increased IL-10, TGF-β and Foxp3 mRNA expression and increased TGF-β levels. However, we found no significant changes in the T-cell subpopulations after insulin treatment, except for higher IL-12p40 mRNA expression and a lower proportion of Treg cells. Conclusions: AHSCT treatment was associated with decreased expansion and function of Th1 and Th17 cells, which may explain the better therapeutic effect of AHSCT compared with the traditional intensive insulin therapy.
