Lessons Learned from Targeting IGF-I Receptor in Thyroid-Associated Ophthalmopathy.
Review in Cells, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Complex immunological mechanisms underlie the pathogenesis of thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO). Historical models of Graves' disease and TAO have focused almost entirely on autoimmune reactivity directed against the thyrotropin receptor (TSHR). The insulin-like growth factor-I receptor (IGF-IR) has been proposed as a second participating antigen in TAO by virtue of its interactions with IGFs and anti-IGF-IR antibodies generated in Graves' disease. Furthermore, the IGF-IR forms with TSHR a physical and functional complex which is involved in signaling downstream from both receptors. Inhibition of IGF-IR activity results in attenuation of signaling initiated at either receptor. Based on the aggregate of findings implicating IGF-IR in TAO, the receptor has become an attractive therapeutic target. Recently, teprotumumab, a human monoclonal antibody IGF-IR inhibitor was evaluated in two clinical trials of patients with moderate to severe, active TAO. Those studies revealed that teprotumumab was safe and highly effective in reducing disease activity and severity. Targeting IGF-IR with specific biologic agents may result in a paradigm shift in the therapy of TAO.
