SGC-CK2-1 Is an Efficient Inducer of Insulin Production and Secretion in Pancreatic β-Cells.
Article in Pharmaceutics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The pyrazolopyrimidine based compound SGC-CK2-1 is a potent and highly specific CK2 inhibitor and a new tool to study the biological functions of protein kinase CK2 irrespective from off-target effects. We used this compound in comparison with the well-established CK2 inhibitor CX-4945 to analyze the importance of CK2 for insulin production and secretion from pancreatic β-cells. Both inhibitors affected the proliferation and viability of MIN6 cells only marginally and downregulated the endogenous CK2 activity to a similar level. Furthermore, both inhibitors increased the message for insulin and boosted the secretion of insulin from storage vesicles. Thus, regarding the high specificity of SGC-CK2-1, we can clearly attribute the observed effects to biological functions of protein kinase CK2.
