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

Neuroinflammation is a hallmark of neurological disorders and is accompanied by the production of neurotoxic agents such as nitric oxide. We used stem cell-based phenotypic screening and identified small molecules that directly protected neurons from neuroinflammation-induced degeneration. We demonstrate that inhibition of CDK5 is involved in, but not sufficient for, neuroprotection. Instead, additional inhibition of GSK3β is required to enhance the neuroprotective effects of CDK5 inhibition, which was confirmed using short hairpin RNA-mediated knockdown of CDK5 and GSK3β. Quantitative phosphoproteomics and high-content imaging demonstrate that neurite degeneration is mediated by aberrant phosphorylation of multiple microtubule-associated proteins. Finally, we show that our hit compound protects neurons in vivo in zebrafish models of motor neuron degeneration and Alzheimer's disease. Thus, we demonstrate an overlap of CDK5 and GSK3β in mediating the regulation of the neuronal cytoskeleton and that our hit compound LDC8 represents a promising starting point for neuroprotective drugs.
