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

Long-lived mouse models and treatments that extend lifespan, such as Rapamycin, acarbose and 17α- -estradiol, lead to reduction in mTORC1 activity, declines in cap-dependent translation and increases in cap-independent translation. In addition, these treatments reduce the MEK-ERK-MNK (ERK1-2) signaling cascade, leading to reduction in eIF4E phosphorylation, which also regulates mRNA translation. Here, we report that Canagliflozin, a drug that extends lifespan only in male mice reduces mTORC1 and ERK1-2 signaling in male mice only. The data suggest reduction in mTORC1 and ERK pathways are common mechanisms shared by both genetic and pharmacological models of slowed aging in mice. Our data also reveal a significant sexual dimorphism in the ERK1-2 signaling pathway which might help to explain why some drugs can extend lifespan in males but have no effects in female mice.
