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

Insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP3) is the primary carrier of circulating insulin-like growth factors and is the most extensively studied protein among the six high-affinity insulin-like growth factor binding proteins. Alterations in IGFBP3 at both the transcriptional and post-translational levels may contribute to the occurrence and progression of tumors. The present review focused on the changes in expression levels of IGFBP3 in tumors, as well as the relationship between the activation and inhibition of associated cell signaling pathways, and alterations in cellular biological behavior, aiming to provide a reference for the precise treatment of tumors.
