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

This review summarizes current knowledge about the mixed lineage kinases (MLKs) and explores their potential role in inflammation and immunity. MLKs were identified initially as signalling molecules in the nervous system. They were also shown to play a role in the cell cycle. Further studies documented three groups of MLKs, and showed that they may be activated via the c-Jun NH(2) terminal kinase (JNK) pathway, and by Rho GTPases. The biochemistry of the MLKs has been investigated in considerable detail. Homodimerization and heterodimerization can occur, and both autophosphorylation and autoinhibition are seen. The interaction between MLKs and JNK interacting protein (JIP) scaffolds, and the resultant effects on mitogen activated protein kinases, have been identified. Clearly, there is some redundancy within the MLK pathway(s), since mice which lack the MLK3 molecule are not abnormal. However, using a combination of biochemical analysis and pharmacological inhibitors, several recent studies in vitro have suggested that MLKs are not only expressed in cells of the immune system (as well as in the nervous system), but also may be implicated selectively in the signalling pathway that follows on toll-like receptor ligation in innate sentinel cells, such as the dendritic cell.
