Disease-disease interactions: molecular links of neurodegenerative diseases with cancer, viral infections, and type 2 diabetes.
Review in Translational neurodegeneration, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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
Neurodegenerative disorders, notably Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, are unified by progressive neuronal loss and aberrant protein aggregation. Growing evidence indicates that these conditions are linked to cancer, infectious diseases, and type 2 diabetes through convergent molecular processes. In this review, we examine the mechanistic foundations of these links, focusing on shared features such as protein misfolding and aggregation, chronic inflammation, and dysregulated signalling pathways. We integrate cellular, animal, and human data to illustrate how pathogenic proteins may influence one another through cross-seeding and co-aggregation, and assess the implications of such interactions for disease susceptibility, progression, and treatment response. Understanding these underlying mechanisms may provide a conceptual framework for developing therapeutic approaches that target the molecular basis of multiple complex disorders.
