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 leading cause of dementia and is characterized by the presence of extensive plaque deposition and neurofibrillary pathology. The aim of the present study was to make an update regarding the influence of estrogens and SERMs on inflammation and on the resolution of inflammation, respectively, focusing on these most important features implicated in the pathophysiology of AD. Several hypothesised mechanisms of action of estrogens and SERM are exposed and also some relevant clinical studies on this subject are analysed. The analyzed studies have a high heterogeneity of preparations used, of administration routes, of the female population included and of the periods of time from the appearance/induction of menopause to the therapeutic intervention and also of follow-up periods of patients and of the means of evaluating their cognitive decline. One can say that all the ways of pharmacological influence on the membrane or intracellular signalling system associated to estrogens that may have clinical importance in the prevention and possibly in the treatment of AD have not been exhausted. Estrogens with selective ERα or G protein-coupled estrogen receptors (GPER1 or GqMER) effects could be used to influence the resolution of inflammation process, with positive effects on AD evolution.
