Epithelial IGF1R is dispensable for IGF2 mediated enhanced intestinal adaptation in retinoblastoma-deficient mice.
Article in Journal of pediatric surgery, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposePreviously, we demonstrated enhanced adaptation after small bowel resection (SBR) in intestinal-specific retinoblastoma (Rb)-deficient mice along with elevated levels of insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) expression within the villi. The purpose of this study was to verify that the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R) plays a role in this phenomenon.
methodsInducible and intestinal specific Rb and IGF1R double knockout mice (iRb/IGF1R-IKO) (n=4) and Rb single knockout mice (iRb-IKO) (n=5) underwent 50% mid SBR. On post-operative day 28, mice were harvested, and structural adaptation was measured as changes in crypt depth and villus height. Rates of enterocyte proliferation were recorded. IGF2 expression within the remnant villi was measured via RT-PCR.
resultsBoth iRb-IKO and iRb/IGF1R-IKO mice demonstrated enhanced adaptation with at least a 45% increase in both crypt depth and villus height in the proximal and distal remnant bowel. Both groups showed elevation of IGF2 expression in the remnant villi, but there were no differences between the two groups.
conclusionEpithelial IGF1R is dispensable for IGF2-mediated enhanced intestinal adaptation in retinoblastoma-deficient mice. Our findings suggest that IGF2 signals for enhanced adaptation in cells outside of the epithelium. Further investigation is needed to study the IGF2/IGF1R signaling interaction within the mesenchyme. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Animal study - not clinical.
