p-Coumaric acid protects against D-galactose induced neurotoxicity by attenuating neuroinflammation and apoptosis in mice brain.
Article in Metabolic brain disease, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
D-galactose (D-gal) induced senescence in rodents is a widely used model for assessment of molecules affecting brain ageing. Chronic administration of D-gal causes neuroinflammation leading to cognitive deficit and memory impairment which represent Alzheimer's dementia. In present study, we investigated the neuroprotective effects of the natural phenol, p-Coumaric acid (PCA) and its underlying mechanism in the chronic D-gal treated mice. Subcutaneous administration of D-gal (150 mg/kg) to Swiss albino mice for 42 consecutive days resulted in cognitive impairment as observed in Morris water maize (MWM) and Y maze test, which was ameliorated by concurrent treatment with PCA (80 mg/kg, and 100 mg/kg, p.o.). Importantly, PCA treatment attenuated the D-gal induced oxidative stress and significantly inhibited acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity in mice brain. Furthermore, PCA treatment significantly lowered levels of inflammatory marker nuclear factor kappa B (NFκB) and reduced levels of proapoptotic enzyme caspase3. We also observed that PCA treatment exhibited β-secretase enzyme (BACE1) inhibitory effect. However, our results revealed that PCA treatment failed to decrease the level of advanced glycation end products both in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, current study demonstrated the significant neuroprotective effect of PCA against D-gal induced oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, cognitive impairment and apoptosis.
