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

Thiazolidinones are well-known heterocycles that demonstrate promising biological effects such as anticonvulsant activity. Hybridization of these chemicals with scaffold, which has necessary pharmacophores for binding to the benzodiazepine receptors, can prompt a novel structure possessing extensive anticonvulsant effects. In this study, novel derivatives of thiazolidinone as new benzodiazepine agonists were designed, synthesized, and biologically evaluated. Compound 5h, 4-chloro-2-(2-fluorophenoxy)-N-(4-oxo-2-(p-tolyl)thiazolidin-3-yl)benzamide, exhibited considerable anticonvulsant activity, proper sedative-hypnotic effect, no memory impairment, and no muscle relaxant effect. The pharmacological effects of the designed compounds were antagonized by flumazenil, which confirmed the benzodiazepine receptors' involvement in their biological effects. Based on in silico calculations of ADME properties of our novel compounds, they could be active oral agents potentially. In this study, we designed novel structures by the hybridization of thiazolidinone moiety with scaffold which has necessary pharmacophores for binding to the benzodiazepine receptors. The results are very promising for developing new lead compounds as benzodiazepine agonists possess anticonvulsant effects.
