1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Insulinoma is a neuroendocrine tumor. It arises from the uncontrolled proliferation of pancreatic β cells. In this study, we created an insulinoma tumor model in nude mice. INS-1 cells were injected in two different ways, subcutaneously (S.C.) or intraperitoneally (I.P.). Body weight, tumor weight, and size were measured. ELISA kits were used analyze to Glucose, insulin, and CA19-9 levels in serum, pancreas, and tumor tissues. KCNN4, KCNK1, GLUT2, IR, HSP70, HSF1, and HSP90 levels were analyzed by western blotting of membrane and/or cytosolic fractions of tumor and pancreas tissue. Tumor formation occurred in nude mice, but it did not occur in Wistar albino rats. The tumor has neuroendocrine cell morphology. Insulin and CA19-9 levels increased in pancreas tissue. In tumor tissue, KCNN4 levels were higher in both membrane and cytosolic fractions, while KCNK1 levels were lower in the membrane fraction of the S.C. group. HSP70 levels were also lower in the S.C. group. In pancreas tissue, KCNK1 levels were lower in the membrane fraction of the S.C. and I.P. groups. GLUT2 levels increased in both groups according to the control group, while IR levels decreased in the S.C. group compared to the control group. However, HSF1 levels increased in the I.P. group, while HSP90 decreased in the S.C. group in pancreatic tissues. The S.C. group is a more suitable insulinoma tumor model. KCNN4, KCNK1, and HSP70 proteins may be important biomarkers in the diagnosis and treatment of insulinoma.
