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

NIK is a key kinase required for the activation of alternative NF-κB signaling pathways. Overactivation of NIK in patients has been observed and is implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases, B-cell malignances, and solid tumors. Over the past decade, inhibition of NIK overactivation with small molecules has been pursued as an attractive strategy for drug discovery, where numerous potent and selective NIK inhibitors with novel pharmacophores have been identified. This review summarizes the structural features and key efficacy studies of the NIK inhibitors reported, which justify the mechanism of action of such inhibitors in animal models driven by NIK overactivation. Given the strong pathological associations between overactivation of NIK and human diseases, human clinical trials of NIK inhibitors as drug candidates are eagerly awaited. Information showcased in this review article might be helpful for the discovery and clinical development of the next generation of NIK inhibitors in the near future.
