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

In recent years, the multi-target-directed ligand concept has been used to design a variety of molecules hitting different biological targets for Alzheimer's disease. We have sought to combine, in the same molecule, the neuroprotective action of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonism with the symptomatic relief offered by cholinergic activity through acetylcholinesterase inhibition. This strategy could potentially maintain the positive outcomes of memantine-acetylcholinesterase inhibitor combinations, but with the benefits of a single molecule therapy. Herein, we discuss selected examples of multifunctional compounds, which we rationally designed to simultaneously modulate these targets. We also examine the intertwined relationship between acetylcholinesterase, N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors, and other active players in the neurotoxic cascade.
