Interleukin-24 inhibits the phenotype and tumorigenicity of cancer stem cell in osteosarcoma via downregulation Notch and Wnt/β-catenin signaling.
Article in Journal of bone oncology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Osteosarcoma frequently presents as recurrence and metastasis, even if the primary lesion was eradicated and/or radiotherapy and chemotherapy were administered. Osteosarcoma cancer stem cells (CSCs) are one of the key factors for the recurrence and metastasis of osteosarcoma. We have shown that interleukin-24 (IL-24) inhibits osteosarcoma cell proliferation, migration and invasion in vitro. In the current study, we investigated the role of IL-24 in inhibiting the growth of osteosarcoma CSCs. IL-24 inhibited proliferation and invasion and decreased the stemness of osteosarcoma CSCs in vitro. In a nude mouse xenograft model, IL-24 significantly inhibited the growth of tumors originating from osteosarcoma CSCs. Moreover, we found that IL-24 was able to inactivate both Notch and Wnt/β-Catenin signaling, which are important for the development of the biological characteristics of CSCs. These data demonstrate that IL-24 is able to kill not only cancer cells but also CSCs in osteosarcoma, suggesting that IL-24 might eradicate osteosarcoma and enhance long-term cure rates in patients with osteosarcoma.
