Amphiphilic anti-SARS-CoV-2 drug remdesivir incorporates into the lipid bilayer and nerve terminal membranes influencing excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmission.

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
Remdesivir is a novel antiviral drug, which is active against the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Remdesivir is known to accumulate in the brain but it is not clear whether it influences the neurotransmission. Here we report diverse and pronounced effects of remdesivir on transportation and release of excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters in rat cortex nerve terminals (synaptosomes) in vitro. Direct incorporation of remdesivir molecules into the cellular membranes was shown by FTIR spectroscopy, planar phospholipid bilayer membranes and computational techniques. Remdesivir decreases depolarization-induced exocytotic release of L-[
