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

Parkin for more than a decade has been portrayed as a neuroprotector gene is now increasingly emerging as a multifaceted gene that can exert entirely opposite effects i.e., both cell proliferation and apoptosis. Parkinson's disease, a neurological disease, progresses due to excess in cell death, while, in case of cancer, cell death normally fails to occur. Parkin, an E3 ubiquitin ligase, was first identified as a gene implicated in autosomal recessive juvenile Parkinsonism, but several evidences indicate that Parkin is a tumor suppressor gene, involved in a variety of cancers. It is hard to imagine that two entirely different classes of disease, like cancer and Parkinson's disease, can converge at a critical point attributable to a single gene, Parkin. This mysterious and hidden connection may prove a boon in disguise and has raised hopes that studying the biology of one disease may help to identify novel targets of therapy for the other. In this Parkinson's disease-cancer story, if the detail of Parkin pathway is unraveled and gaps in the storyline are properly filled up, we may end getting an entirely new therapeutic option. This review mainly highlights the recent literature which suggests how Parkin gene regulates the various hallmarks of both the Parkinson's disease and cancer.
