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 an age-dependent neurodegenerative disorder and the leading cause of dementia. AD is characterized by the aggregation of amyloid-ß (Aß) peptide, increased levels of tau protein, and loss of redox homeostasis responsible for mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation. Excessive accumulation of toxic Aß plaques activates microglia, which initiates neuroinflammation and consequently accelerates synaptic damage and neuronal loss. Various proinflammatory cytokines release, microglia proliferation, reactive astrocyte, and oxidative (reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, level of antioxidant enzymes, redox homeostasis, and lipid peroxidation) stress play a major role in AD. Several studies revealed that nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) regulates redox homeostasis and works as an anti-inflammatory in various neurodegenerative disorders. D-Glutamate expression of transcription factor Nrf2 and its genes (glutamate-cysteine ligase catalytic subunit (GCLC), Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), and NADPH quinone oxidoreductase I (NQO1)) has been found in AD. Nrf2-HO-1 enhances the expression of antioxidant genes, inhibits microglia-mediated inflammation, and boosts mitochondrial function, suggesting that modulators of this protein may be useful to manage AD. This review focuses on the role of Nrf2 in AD, with a particular emphasis on the various pathways involved in the positive and negative modulation of Nrf2, namely Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3), Nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB), and p38Mitogen-activated protein kinases (p38MAPK). Also, we have discussed the progress and challenges regarding the Nrf2 activators for AD treatment.
