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

Misfolding of the amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) and its subsequent aggregation into toxic oligomers is one of the leading causes of Alzheimer's disease (AD). As a therapeutic approach, cyclic peptides have been modified in many ways and developed as a potential class of amyloid aggregation inhibitors. Head-to-tail cyclic peptides with alternating d, l amino acids inhibit amyloid aggregation significantly. On the other hand, excess deposition of copper, iron, and zinc enhances amyloid aggregation. Dysregulation of these metal ions in the brain triggers aggregation by binding to the Aβ peptide. Therefore, specific metal chelators have been developed for disrupting the Aβ-metal complex, thereby reducing toxicity and restoring metal ion homeostasis. Herein, we report the development of a head-to-tail cyclic peptidomimetic with a copper chelating ligand attached. The designed peptidomimetic inhibits amyloid aggregation significantly in a two-fold molar ratio to the Aβ peptide, as confirmed by the thioflavin T (ThT) fluorescence assay, dynamic light scattering (DLS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Congo-red stained birefringence studies. The chelating ligand attached to the cyclic peptide binds efficiently to Cu
