Systematic Review of the Role of Alpha-Protein Kinase 1 in Cancer and Cancer-Related Inflammatory Diseases.
Review in Cancers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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.
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
backgroundDeregulation of conventional protein kinases is associated with the growth and development of cancer cells. Alpha-kinase 1 (ALPK1) belongs to a newly discovered family of serine/threonine protein kinases with no sequence homology to conventional protein kinases, and its function in cancer is poorly understood.
methodsIn this systematic review, we searched for and analyzed studies linking ALPK1 to cancer development and progression.
resultsBased on the current evidence obtained using human, animal, cellular, and tissue models, ALPK1 is located upstream and triggers cancer cell development and metastasis by regulating the inflammatory response through phosphorylation. Its mRNA and protein levels were found to correlate with advanced tumor size and lymph node metastasis, which occur from the cellular cytoplasm into the nucleus. ALPK1 is also strongly associated with gout, chronic kidney disease, and diabetes, which are considered as inflammatory diseases and associated with cancer.
conclusionALPK1 is an oncogene involved in carcinogenesis. Chronic inflammation is the common regulatory mechanism between cancer and these diseases. Future research should focus on identifying inhibitors of serine/threonine and ALPK1 at their phosphorylation sites, which would block various signal transductions and potentially offer kinase-targeted therapeutic agents for patients with cancer and inflammatory diseases.
