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

Autophagy is an essential cellular process concern with cellular homeostasis down-regulated by mTOR, whose activity can be modulated by rapamycin, a kind of lipophilic macrolide antibiotic, through forming a complex with immunophilin FKBP12 essential for mTOR regulation to induce autophagy. Therefore, rapamycin is normally used as a neuron protective agent. The immunophilin FKBP12 binding ligand FK506 is well known as an immunosuppressive agent by inhibiting the calcineurin expression. In this study, we synthesized a series of modified compounds based on the FKBP12 binding moiety to as same as the binding structure of rapamycin and FK506 particularly. We removed the other binding regions of the complex that has the property of immunosuppression. We found that a novel small molecule named TH2849 from these derivative compounds has a significant binding connection with mTOR by comparing to calcineurin. The effects of TH2849 on calcineurin/NFAT were not as significant as FK506, and weak effects on IL2/p34
