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

The mechanistic (or mammalian) target of rapamycin (mTOR), an evolutionarily conserved protein kinase, orchestrates cellular responses to growth, metabolic and stress signals. mTOR processes various extracellular and intracellular inputs as part of two mTOR protein complexes, mTORC1 or mTORC2. The mTORCs have numerous cellular targets but members of a family of protein kinases, the protein kinase (PK)A/PKG/PKC (AGC) family are the best characterized direct mTOR substrates. The AGC kinases control multiple cellular functions and deregulation of many members of this family underlies numerous pathological conditions. mTOR phosphorylates conserved motifs in these kinases to allosterically augment their activity, influence substrate specificity, and promote protein maturation and stability. Activation of AGC kinases in turn triggers the phosphorylation of diverse, often overlapping, targets that ultimately control cellular response to a wide spectrum of stimuli. This review will highlight recent findings on how mTOR regulates AGC kinases and how mTOR activity is feedback regulated by these kinases. We will discuss how this regulation can modulate downstream targets in the mTOR pathway that could account for the varied cellular functions of mTOR.
