Structure-activity relationship of tacrine and its analogues in relation to inhibitory activity against Alzheimer's disease.
Article in Journal of molecular modeling, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Alzheimer's disease is a widespread type of neurodegenerative dementia that mainly affects the elderly. Currently, this disease can only be treated palliatively. Existing drugs can only improve patients' symptoms. The search for new drugs that can effectively treat this disease is an important field of research in medicinal chemistry. Here we report a structure-activity relationship study of tacrine and some of its analogues in relation to their inhibitory activities against Alzheimer's disease. All of the molecular descriptors were calculated at the M062X/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. Principal component analysis of the molecular descriptors showed that the compounds could be categorized into active and inactive compounds using just two descriptors: the HOMO and LUMO energies. These results should help us to explain the activities of tacrine derivatives and to model new tacrine analogues that are active against Alzheimer's disease. Graphical abstract PCA score plot for tacrine and its analogues.
