Review in British medical bulletin, 1989. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04298684 (Efficacy of Metformin Versus Sitagliptin on Benign Thyroid Nodules Size in Type 2 Diabetes), which is not on this map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

The insulin and insulin-like growth factor family of peptides are proteins with similar structural characteristics whose functions have diverged during evolution. Recent studies have provided a great deal of information regarding structural characteristics of these peptides, the structures of the genes that control their biosynthesis, and determination of their receptor structures. Initially these factors were believed to function as classical hormones and the endocrine regulation of their blood concentrations was studied intensively. More recently several cell types have been shown to secrete these peptides and the autocrine and paracrine regulation of insulin-like growth factor secretion by cells and tissues has received extensive characterization. Following secretion into interstitial fluids the IGF's associate with high affinity, soluble binding proteins. These proteins are capable of modulating receptor binding and growth factor biological activity. The structure of these proteins and the variables that control their secretion are currently being determined. In spite of this information significant gaps in our knowledge exist regarding the mechanisms by which these peptides stimulate replication.
