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

The antioxidant properties of organoselenium compounds have been extensively investigated because oxidative stress is a hallmark of a variety of chronic human diseases. Here, we reported the influence of substituent groups in the antioxidant activity of β-selenoamines. We have investigated whether they exhibited glutathione peroxidase-like (GPx-like) activity and whether they could be substrate of thioredoxin reductase (TrxR). In the DPPH assay, the β-selenium amines did not exhibit antioxidant activity. However, the β-selenium amines with p-methoxy and tosyl groups prevented the lipid peroxidation. The β-selenium amine compound with p-methoxy substituent group exhibited thiol-peroxidase-like activity (GPx-like activity) and was reduced by the hepatic TrxR. These results contribute to understand the influence of structural alteration of non-conventional selenium compounds as synthetic mimetic of antioxidant enzymes of mammalian organisms.
