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

Amyloid-β (Aβ) accumulation, metal ion dyshomeostasis, oxidative stress, and cholinergic deficit are four major characteristics of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Herein, we report the reactivities of 12 flavonoids against four pathogenic elements of AD: metal-free and metal-bound Aβ, free radicals, and acetylcholinesterase. A series of 12 flavonoids was selected based on the molecular structures that are responsible for multiple reactivities including hydroxyl substitution and transfer of the B ring from C2 to C3. Our experimental and computational studies reveal that the catechol moiety, the hydroxyl groups at C3 and C7, and the position of the B ring are important for instilling multiple functions in flavonoids. We establish a structure-activity relationship of flavonoids that should be useful for designing chemical reagents with multiple reactivities against the pathological factors of AD.
