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

Fas-associated factor 1 or FAF1 is a Fas-binding protein implicated in apoptosis. FAF1 is the product of a gene at PARK 10 locus on chromosome 1p32, a locus associated with late-onset PD [Hicks, A.A., Petursson, H., Jonsson, T., Stefansson, H., Johannsdottir, H.S., Sainz, J., Frigge, M.L.et al., 2002. A susceptibility gene for late-onset idiopathic Parkinson's disease. Ann Neurol. 52, 549-555.]. In the present study we investigated the role of FAF1 in cell death and in Parkinson's disease (PD) pathogenesis. FAF1 levels were significantly increased in frontal cortex of PD as well as in PD cases with Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology compared to control cases. Changes in FAF1 expression were specific to PD-related alpha-synuclein pathology and nigral cell loss. In addition, PD-related insults including, mitochondrial complex I inhibition, oxidative stress, and increased alpha-synuclein expression specifically increased endogenous FAF1 expression in vitro. Increased FAF1 levels induced cell death and significantly potentiated toxic effects of PD-related stressors including, oxidative stress, mitochondrial complex I inhibition and proteasomal inhibition. These studies, together with previous genetic linkage studies, highlight the potential significance of FAF1 in pathogenesis of idiopathic PD.
