Renal insulin-like growth factor I and growth hormone receptor binding in experimental diabetes and after unilateral nephrectomy in the rat.
Article in Diabetologia, 1991. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
We have measured specific binding of insulin-like growth factor I and growth hormone to renal plasma membranes from control, streptozotocin-diabetic, insulin-treated diabetic, uninephrectomised and combined diabetic-uninephrectomised male Wistar rats. Control, insulin-treated and uninephrectomised rats had similar body weights after 7 days (243 +/- 2 g), whereas diabetic and diabetic-uninephrectomised animals were significantly lighter (219 +/- 4 and 203 +/- 4 g, p less than 0.05). Blood glucose concentrations were similar in the diabetic and diabetic-uninephrectomised animals (around 26 mmol/l) but significantly lower in the insulin-treated group. Right kidney weight increased by 14% in the control, insulin-treated and sham-nephrectomised animals, by 33% in the diabetic group, 38% in thenephrectomised animals and 60% in the diabetic-nephrectomised group. The renal content of insulin-like growth factor I was similar and stable in the control, insulin-treated and sham-nephrectomised animals (208 +/- 14 ng/g wet weight) but rose to a peak of 669 +/- 35 ng/g in the diabetic group (p less than 0.001), 871 +/- 34 ng/g in the nephrectomised animals (p less than 0.001) and 1012 +/- 43 ng/g in the diabetic-uninephrectomised group (p less than 0.001). Maximum binding of insulin-like growth factor I fell on day 1 in the diabetic group (8.3 +/- 1.4 vs 5.2 +/- 0.71 x 10(-11) mol/l; p less than 0.01) but thereafter was identical to control animals.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
