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

The human leucine-rich repeat kinases (LRRKs), LRRK1 and LRRK2 are large and unusually complex multi-domain kinases, which regulate fundamental cellular processes and have been implicated in human disease. Structures of LRRK2 have recently been determined, but the structure and molecular mechanisms regulating the activity of the LRRK1 as well as differences in the regulation of LRRK1 and LRRK2 remain unclear. Here, we report a cryo-EM structure of the LRRK1 monomer and a lower-resolution cryo-EM map of the LRRK1 dimer. The monomer structure, in which the kinase is in an inactive conformation, reveals key interdomain interfaces that control kinase activity as we validate experimentally. Both the LRRK1 monomer and dimer are structurally distinct compared to LRRK2. Overall, our results provide structural insights into the activation of the human LRRKs, which advance our understanding of their physiological and pathological roles.
