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

backgroundCytochrome P450 (CYP) 46A1, also known as cholesterol 24S-hydroxylase, is essential for maintaining the homeostasis of cholesterol in the brain and serves as a therapeutic target of neurodegenerative disorders and excitatory neurotoxicity. N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) is a prototypical receptor for the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate and can be specifically regulated by 24S-hydroxycholesterol (24S-HC). Glycyrrhiza is one of the most widely used herbs with broad clinical applications, which has several pharmacological activities, such as clearing heat and detoxifying, moistening the lung and relieving cough, analgesic, neuroprotective outcomes, and regulating a variety of drug activities. Glycyrrhiza is a commonly used herb for the treatment of epileptic encephalopathy. However, whether glycyrrhiza can interfere with the activity of CYP46A1 remains unknown.

objectiveThis study aimed to investigate the regulating effects of glycyrrhiza polysaccharides (GP) on CYP46A1-mediated cholesterol conversion, as well as in the modulation of related proteins. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe effects of glycyrrhiza polysaccharide (GP) on the activity of CYP46A1 were investigated

resultsThe

conclusionGP exhibits a significant inhibitory effect on CYP46A1 activity
