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

purposeChlorogenic acid (CGA), a phenolic acid isolated from fruits and vegetables, has been established to have neuroprotective properties in relation to Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the precise mechanism by which CGA prevents cognitive deficits in AD has not been well studied. This study aimed to explore the potential molecular mechanism of CGA action using an Aβ

methodsThree-month-old male APP/PS1 double transgenic mice and a human neuroblastoma cell line (SH-SY5Y) were used to assess the effects of CGA on AD in vivo and in vitro, respectively. Cognitive function in mice was measured using a Morris water maze (MWM) test. Hematoxylin and eosin, monodansylcadaverine fluorescence, LysoTracker Red (LTR), and immunofluorescence staining were used to evaluate the morphological changes in vivo and in vitro. The protein expressions of autophagy markers (LC3B-II/LC3B-I, p62/SQSTM, beclin1 and Atg5) and lysosomal-function-related markers (cathepsin D, mTOR, p-mTOR P70S6K, p-p70s6k and TFEB) were analyzed with Western blot analyses.

resultsCGA treatment significantly improved spatial memory, relieved neuron damage, and inhibited autophagy in APP/PS1 mice (P<0.05). Moreover, CGA notably suppressed autophagosome production and enhanced autophagy flux in SH-SY5Y cells induced by Aβ

conclusionCGA treatment restored autophagic flux in the brain and alleviated cognitive impairments in APP/PS1 mice via enhanced activation of the mTOR/TFEB signaling pathway.
