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

Since leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) was linked to Parkinson's disease in 2004, kinase activity of LRRK2 has been believed to play a critical role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease. As a result, identification of LRRK2 inhibitors has been a focus for drug discovery. However, most LRRK2 mutations do not simply increase kinase activity. In this review we summarize the potential mechanisms that regulate the kinase activity of LRRK2. We outline some currently available kinase inhibitors, including the identification of a DFG-out (type-II) inhibitor. Finally, we discuss the relationship of LRRK2 with tau and α-synuclein. The fact that all three proteins are autophapgy-related provides a future strategy for the identification of LRRK2 physiological substrate(s).
