Perphenazine-Macrocycle Conjugates Rapidly Sequester the Aβ42 Monomer and Prevent Formation of Toxic Oligomers and Amyloid.
Article in ACS chemical neuroscience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Alzheimer's disease is imposing a growing social and economic burden worldwide, and effective therapies are urgently required. One possible approach to modulation of the disease outcome is to use small molecules to limit the conversion of monomeric amyloid (Aβ42) to cytotoxic amyloid oligomers and fibrils. We have synthesized modulators of amyloid assembly that are unlike others studied to date: these compounds act primarily by sequestering the Aβ42 monomer. We provide kinetic and nuclear magnetic resonance data showing that these perphenazine conjugates divert the Aβ42 monomer into amorphous aggregates that are not cytotoxic. Rapid monomer sequestration by the compounds reduces fibril assembly, even in the presence of pre-formed fibrillar seeds. The compounds are therefore also able to disrupt monomer-dependent secondary nucleation, the autocatalytic process that generates the majority of toxic oligomers. The inhibitors have a modular design that is easily varied, aiding future exploration and use of these tools to probe the impact of distinct Aβ42 species populated during amyloid assembly.
