Diverse Biological Activity of Benzofuroxan/Sterically Hindered Phenols Hybrids.
Article in Pharmaceuticals (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Combining two pharmacophores in a molecule can lead to useful synergistic effects. Herein, we show hybrid systems that combine sterically hindered phenols with dinitrobenzofuroxan fragments exhibit a broad range of biological activities. The modular assembly of such phenol/benzofuroxan hybrids allows variations in the phenol/benzofuroxan ratio. Interestingly, the antimicrobial activity only appears when at least two benzofuroxan moieties are introduced per phenol. The most potent of the synthesized compounds exhibit high cytotoxicity against human duodenal adenocarcinoma (HuTu 80), human breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7), and human cervical carcinoma cell lines. This toxicity is associated with the induction of apoptosis via the internal mitochondrial pathway and an increase in ROS production. Encouragingly, the index of selectivity relative to healthy tissues exceeds that for the reference drugs Doxorubicin and Sorafenib. The biostability of the leading compounds in whole mice blood is sufficiently high for their future quantification in biological matrices.
