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

Insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR) has been implicated in the normal and malignant growth of many cell types including cells from the central nervous system. In the cerebellar cortex IGF-IR mRNA is found in granular cells and IGF-I stimulation is mitogenic and protects cells from low-potassium-induced apoptosis. Since primitive neuroectodermal tumors/medulloblastomas (PNETs/medulloblastomas) are suspected to originate from the external cerebellar granular layer, it is reasonable to postulate that IGF-IR and/or its signaling molecules may contribute to the transformation of these poorly differentiated cells. To study activation of the IGF-IR system in medulloblastomas, we have utilized an antibody (anti-pY1316) that specifically recognizes the phosphorylated (active) form of the IGF-IR. Medulloblastoma biopsy specimens were positive when examined immunohistochemically with anti-Y1316 antibody. Further analysis of the IGF-IR system was performed in three human (Daoy, TE-671, D283 Med) and four mouse (BsB8, BsB13, Bs-1b, Bs-1c) medulloblastoma cell lines. All the murine cell lines examined express IGF-IR and PI3-kinase at relatively normal levels, and grossly overexpress IRS-1, when compared with normal mouse cerebellum. Within 15 min following IGF-I stimulation both mouse and human cell lines phosphorylate the beta subunit of the IGF-IR, IRS-1, Akt, and MAP kinases. They respond with cell proliferation when stimulated solely with IGF-I and are strongly inhibited when challenged with a dominant negative mutant of the IGF-IR (486/STOP), or with antisense oligonucleotides against the IGF-IR mRNA.
