A Novel Concept is Needed for Combating Alzheimer's Disease and NeuroHIV.
Article in Alzheimers disease & dementia, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Both Alzheimer's disease (AD) and HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) could progress to dementia, a severe consequence of neurodegenerative diseases. Cumulating evidence suggests that the β-amyloid (Aβ) theory, currently thought to be the predominant mechanism underlying AD and AD-related dementia (ADRD), needs re-evaluation, considering all treatments and new drug trials based upon this theory have been unsuccessful. Similar intention for treating HAND, including HIV-associated dementia (HAD), has also failed. Thus, novel theory, hypothesis, and therapeutic strategies are desperately needed for future study and effective treatments of AD/ADRD and HAND. There are numerous potential upstream mechanisms that may cause AD and/or HAND; but it is unrealistic to identify all of them. However, it is realistic and feasible to intervene the downstream mechanism of these two devastating neurodegenerative diseases by blocking the final common path to neurotoxicity mediated by overactivation of NMDA receptors (NMDARs) and voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs). Such a combined pharmacological intervention will likely ameliorate neuronal Ca
