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

Although different neurodegenerative diseases are defined by distinct pathological proteins, they share many common features including protein aggregation. Despite this commonality, most current therapeutic approaches in the field, such as anti-aggregate antibodies, are focused on individual diseases or single neuropathologies with only limited success. The endolysosomal proteins progranulin and TMEM106B were both initially associated with frontotemporal lobar degeneration but have subsequently also been linked to other neurodegenerative diseases. Thus, these proteins are predicted to participate in common pathogenic pathways shared across various neurodegenerative diseases. Importantly, recent discoveries of TMEM106B amyloid fibrils in varied neurodegenerative diseases and glycosphingolipid regulation by progranulin and TMEM106B further support their central roles in cross-disease neurodegenerative mechanisms. This review summarizes recent advances in progranulin and TMEM106B function within the endolysosomal system and neurodegenerative diseases. It describes preclinical models and therapeutic approaches for progranulin- and TMEM106B-associated diseases. We also discuss future direction leading to novel alternative therapies targeting shared mechanisms in neurodegenerative diseases.
