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

RationaleTraf2- and Nck-interacting kinase (TNIK), a member of germinal center kinase (GCK) family, has been implicated as a risk factor in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder as well as the action of antipsychotics. TNIK is an essential activator of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway which has been identified involved in the mechanism underlying the effects of antipsychotics. Thus, the effects of TNIK on antipsychotics may be achieved by influencing Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway proteins.Objectives and methodsIn the current study, the effects of up- or downregulated TNIK on β-catenin, T-cell factor 4 (TCF-4), glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK3β), and phosphorylated GSK3β (p-GSK3β) were examined in the human glioma U251 cells. Then, we observed the effects of antipsychotics (clozapine and risperidone) on the above proteins and evaluated the role of differentially expressed TNIK on antipsychotic-treated cell groups.ResultsThe result showed that clozapine treatment decreased β-catenin and TCF-4 levels in U251 cells, and risperidone had the similar effects on β-catenin and p-GSK3β. The downregulated TNIK using siRNA impeded the regulation of antipsychotics on Wnt pathway proteins via increasing the expression levels of TCF-4, β-catenin, or p-GSK3β, whereas the upregulated TNIK made no significant change.ConclusionsThe influence of TNIK on the effects of antipsychotics may be partly through Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
