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) shows cognitive impairments in clinic, which is multifactorial with different etiopathogenic mechanisms such as Aβ deposition, neuroinflammation and neuronal dystrophy involved. Therefore, multi-targets drugs with neuroprotective, anti-amyloidogenic and anti-inflammatory properties will be effective in AD treatment. Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) possesses a broad spectrum of pharmacological activities in the prevention and treatment of multiple neurodegenerative diseases. In the present study, we showed that oral administration of EGCG (50 mg/kg) for 4 months significantly attenuated the cognitive deficits in APP/PS1 transgenic mice, which served as AD model. Moreover, EGCG induced an improvement in dendritic integrity and expression levels of synaptic proteins in the brain of APP/PS1 mice. And EGCG exerted obvious anti-inflammatory effects, which was manifested by alleviating microglia activation, decreasing pro-inflammatory cytokine (IL-1β) and increasing anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-10, IL-13). Furthermore, β-amyloid (Aβ) plaques were markedly reduced in the hippocampus of 6-month old APP/PS1 mice after EGCG treatment. In conclusion, these findings indicate that EGCG improves AD-like cognitive impairments through neuroprotective, anti-amyloidogenic and anti-inflammatory effects, thus is a promising therapeutic candidate for AD.
