Insulin growth factor-1 pathway in cervical carcinoma cancer stem cells.
Article in Molecular and cellular biochemistry, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Cancer stem cells (CSC) drive tumour progression and are implicated in relapse and resistance to conventional cancer therapies. Identification of differentially expressed genes by gene expression (GEP) profiling may help identify the differentially activated signalling pathways in cancer stem cells as opposed to bulk tumour cells which will provide new insights into cancer stem cell biology and aid in identification of novel therapeutic targets. Our study focused on the inhibition of CSC from cervical cancer cell lines by targeting insulin-like growth factor (IGF), which was identified by differential GEP. Targeted inhibition of IGF-1 by JB-1 trifluoroacetate (inhibitor of IGF) was carried out in SiHa, RSBS-14 and RSBS-43 cervical cancer derived cell lines. Effect of cisplatin was also evaluated. Inhibition of IGF-1 signalling was confirmed by demonstration of reduction in p-Akt levels. The cell biological effects of IGF-1 inhibition included an increase in G2M/S fraction, increased apoptosis and decreased invasive ability. JB-1 and cisplatin showed synergism. However, transcript levels of stemness and EMT markers showed variable levels following IGF inhibition. Overall, this proof-of-concept study has shown that IGF-1 is an attractive target for inhibition of CSC in invasive cervical cancer.
