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 the most common form of dementia and currently affects 5.4 million Americans. A number of anti-Aβ (beta amyloid) therapeutic agents have been developed for AD, but so far all of them failed in clinic. Here we used peptoid chemistry to develop ligands selective for Aβ42. Peptoids are N-substituted glycine oligomers, a class of peptidomimics. We synthesized an on-bead peptoid library consisting of 38,416 unique peptoids. The generated peptoid library was screened and arrays of Aβ42-selective peptoid ligands were identified. One of those peptoid ligands, IAM1 (inhibitor of amyloid), and the dimeric form (IAM1)2 were synthesized and evaluated in a variety of biochemical assays. We discovered that IAM1 selectively binds to Aβ42, while the dimeric derivative (IAM1)2 has a higher affinity for Aβ42. Furthermore, we demonstrated that IAM1 and (IAM1)2 were able to inhibit the aggregation of Aβ42 in a concentration-dependent manner, and that (IAM1)2 protected primary hippocampal neurons from the Aβ-induced toxicity in vitro. These results suggest that IAM1 and (IAM1)2 are specific Aβ42 ligands with antiaggregation and neuroprotective properties. IAM1, (IAM1)2, and their derivatives hold promise as Aβ42 detection agents and as lead compounds for the development of AD therapeutic agents.
