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 a progressive neurological disorder that manifests clinically as alterations in movement as well as multiple non-motor symptoms including but not limited to cognitive and autonomic abnormalities. Loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding the ubiquitin E3 ligase Parkin are causal for familial and juvenile PD. Among several therapeutic approaches being explored to treat or improve the prognosis of patients with PD, the use of small molecules able to reinstate or boost Parkin activity represents a potential pharmacological treatment strategy. A major barrier is the lack of high-throughput platforms for the robust and accurate quantification of Parkin activity in vitro. Here, we present two different and complementary Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time-Of-Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF/MS)-based approaches for the quantification of Parkin E3 ligase activity in vitro. Both approaches are scalable for high-throughput primary screening to facilitate the identification of Parkin modulators.
