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

Tyrosine kinases (TKs) are catalytic enzymes activated by auto-phosphorylation that function by phosphorylating tyrosine residues on downstream substrates. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been heavily exploited as cancer therapeutics, primarily due to their role in autophagy, blood vessel remodeling and inflammation. This suggests tyrosine kinase inhibition as an appealing therapeutic target for exploiting convergent mechanisms across several neurodegenerative disease (NDD) pathologies. The overlapping mechanisms of action between neurodegeneration and cancer suggest that TKIs may play a pivotal role in attenuating neurodegenerative processes, including degradation of misfolded or toxic proteins, reduction of inflammation and prevention of fibrotic events of blood vessels in the brain. In this review, we will discuss the distinct roles that select TKs have been shown to play in various disease-associated processes, as well as identify TKs that have been explored as targets for therapeutic intervention and associated pharmacological agents being investigated as treatments for NDDs.
