Evaluation of recombinant human IGF-1/IGFBP-3 on intraventricular hemorrhage prevention and survival in the preterm rabbit pup model.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 (IGF-1) is essential for normal brain development and regulates processes of vascular maturation. The pathogenesis of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) relates to the fragility of the immature capillaries in the germinal matrix, and its inability to resist fluctuations in cerebral blood flow. In this work, using different experimental setups, we aimed to (i) establish an optimal time-point for glycerol-induction of IVH in relation to time-point of recombinant human (rh) IGF-1/rhIGFBP-3 administration, and (ii) to evaluate the effects of a physiologic replacement dose of rhIGF-1/rhIGFBP-3 on prevention of IVH and survival in the preterm rabbit pup. The presence of IVH was evaluated using high-frequency ultrasound and post-mortem examinations. In the first part of the study, the highest incidence of IVH (> 60%), occurred when glycerol was administered at the earliest timepoint, e.g., 6 h after birth. At later time-points (18 and 24 h) the incidence decreased substantially. In the second part of the study, the incidence of IVH and mortality rate following rhIGF-1/rhIGFBP-3 administration was not statistically different compared to vehicle treated animals. To evaluate the importance of maintaining intrauterine serum levels of IGF-1 following preterm birth, as reported in human interventional studies, additional studies are needed to further characterize and establish the potential of rhIGF-1/rhIGFBP-3 in reducing the prevalence of IVH and improving survival in the preterm rabbit pup.
