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

Parkinson's disease (PD) is an incurable movement disorder characterized by dopaminergic cell loss, neuroinflammation, and α-synuclein pathology. Herein, we investigated the therapeutic effects of necrosulfonamide (NSA), a specific inhibitor of mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL), in a subacute 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) mouse model of PD. MLKL is an executor of necroptosis, a programmed cell death pathway that causes inflammation. Repeated administration of NSA resulted in the recovery of impaired motor performance and dopaminergic degeneration. Furthermore, NSA inhibited the phosphorylation, ubiquitylation, and oligomerization of MLKL, all of which are associated with MLKL cell death-inducing activity in dopaminergic cells in the substantia nigra (SN). NSA also inhibited microglial activation and reactive astrogliosis as well as the MPTP-induced expression of proinflammatory molecules such as tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1β, inducible nitric oxide synthase, and cystatin F. Furthermore, NSA inhibited α-synuclein oligomerization and phosphorylation in the SN of MPTP-treated mice by inhibiting the activity of glycogen synthase kinase 3β and matrix metalloproteinase-3. In conclusion, NSA has anti-necroptotic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-synucleinopathic effects on PD pathology. Therefore, NSA is a potential therapeutic candidate for PD.
