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
Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) plays an important regulatory role in the regulation of growth, differentiation, and anabolism in a variety of cells. In this study, the full-length cDNA of the IGF1 gene was cloned from Hyriopsis cumingii, named HcIGF1. The expression level of HcIGF1 in six tissues (adductor muscle, foot, hepatopancreas, gill, mantle, and gonad) was determined. In addition, the localization of HcIGF1 in the mantle was analyzed by in situ hybridization, and finally the function of HcIGF1 was explored by RNA interference and prokaryotic expression. The results showed that the amino acid sequence contained a typical IIGF structural domain. The phylogenetic tree showed that HcIGF1 clustered with other marine bivalve sequences. Quantitative real-time PCR and in situ hybridization analysis showed that HcIGF1 was expressed in all tissues. The highest expression was in the foot and the lowest was in the mantle. In the mantle tissue, the hybridization signal was mainly concentrated in the outer mantle. After RNA interference, the expression of IGF1 was found to be significantly decreased (p < 0.05), and its related genes IGF1R, AKT1, and cyclin D2 were downregulated, while MAPK1 were upregulated. The recombinant HcIGF1 protein was purified and its growth-promoting effect was investigated. The results showed that the recombinant HcIGF1 protein could significantly promote the proliferative activity of the mantle cells of mussels, with the best proliferative effect at 12.5 μg/mL. The results of this study provide a new method to solve the problem of weak proliferation of shellfish cells in vitro and lay the foundation for further understanding of the growth regulation mechanism of H. cumingii, as well as a better understanding of the physiological function of IGF1 in mollusks.
