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

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is the most prevalent form of age-related dementia. Even though a century has passed since the discovery of AD, the exact cause of the disease still remains unknown. As a result, this poses a major hindrance in developing effective therapies for treating AD. Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) is one of the kinases that has been investigated recently as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of AD. It is also known as human tau protein kinase and is a proline-directed serine-threonine kinase. Since dysregulation of this kinase affects all the major characteristic features of the disease, such as tau phosphorylation, amyloid formation, memory, and synaptic function, it is thought to be a major player in the pathogenesis of AD. In this review, we present the most recent information on the role of this kinase in the onset and progression of AD, as well as significant findings that identify GSK-3 as one of the most important targets for AD therapy. We further discuss the potential of treating AD by targeting GSK-3 and give an overview of the ongoing studies aimed at developing GSK-3 inhibitors in preclinical and clinical investigations.
