Molecular docking analysis of marine compounds with voltage gated calcium channel for potential anti-epileptic molecules.
Article in Bioinformation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Epileptic seizures are directly linked with an anomalous influx of extracellular calcium or sodium anions through voltage-gated channels disturb the chemical and electrical gradients, resulting in seizures or jerking moments. Voltage-gated calcium channel (VGCC) subunit α2δ-1 is the binding site for gabapentinoids used to treat epilepsy and neuropathic pain. However, this class of drugs showed severe side effects associated with CNS and respiratory depression. Hence, we screened a total of 2583 phytochemicals from the Comprehensive Marine Natural Products Database for their drug likeliness and pharmacokinetics (ADME/T) properties. The selected phytochemicals were docked with the VGCC α2δ-1 protein target and the marketed AED Pregabalin is used as standard. The docking results helped to select 45 docked compounds with better binding affinity, among which Acanthiline A showed the maximum binding affinity with the binding energy of -11.9 kcal/mol, thus reflecting its potential anti-epileptic activity.
