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

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a malignant tumor caused by complex pathological mechanisms, and is characterized by a high rate of cancer-related mortality and poor patient prognosis. Overgrowth of cancer cells, which results from the inhibition of cell apoptosis and/or the promotion of cell proliferation, leads to the progression of GBM. Therefore, studies into the regulatory mechanisms of cancer cell growth in GBM are required to identify potential therapeutic targets and improve treatment for GBM. In the present study, the role of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1)/IGF1 receptor (IGF1R) signaling in the survival of GBM cells was evaluated. It was observed that IGF1 significantly inhibited the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways of apoptosis (P<0.05), and overexpression of IGF1R significantly promoted the survival of GBM cells (P<0.05). Moreover, both exogenous IGF1 and overexpression of IGF1R promoted the phosphorylation of protein kinase B (AKT), and inhibition of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT pathway significantly attenuated the inhibitory effects of IGF1/IGF1R on GBM apoptosis (P<0.05). Collectively, these findings indicate that IGF1/IGF1R promotes the survival of GBM cells through activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway. Therefore, inhibition of IGF1/IGF1R may be a viable therapeutic strategy to suppress the progression of GBM.
