Pharmacophore-driven identification of N-methyl-D-receptor antagonists as potent neuroprotective agents validated using
Article in Biology methods & protocols, 2020. 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 (AD), apparently the most widespread reason behind dementia, is delineated by a continuous cognitive weakening in the aged. During its progression, N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonists are known to play a pivotal part in the mechanisms of learning and memory. Since there is an unmet medical need for the treatment of AD, we aim to identify possible chemical compounds targeted toward N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors. Three-dimensional models are developed to unveil some of the essential characteristics of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors by using a collection of already discovered N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor inhibitors. This is followed by virtual screening, which results in novel chemical compounds having the potential to inhibit N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors. Molecular docking studies and analysis promulgated two lead compounds with a high LibDock score. The compounds are shortlisted based on high estimated activity, fit values, LibDock score, no violation of Lipinski's, and availability for procuring. Finally, the shortlisted compounds are tested by employing
