Article in Current pharmaceutical design, 2025. 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
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveAlzheimer's disease (AD) is an enervating and chronic progressive neurodegenerative disorder. Celecoxib (CXB) possesses efficacious antioxidants and has neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory properties. However, the poor bioavailability of CXB limits its therapeutic utility. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the microencapsulated celecoxib MCXB for neuroprotection. METHODOLOGY: CXB was screened by molecular docking study using AutoDock (version 5.2), and the following proteins, such as 4EY7, 2HM1, 2Z5X, and 1PBQ were selected for predicting its neuroprotective effect. Scopolamine 20 mg/kg/day for approximately 7 days was administered to albino rats. Pure CXB 100 mg/kg/- day and 200 mg/kg/day, and MCXB 100 mg/kg/day and 200 mg/kg/day were administered, respectively. Further, to assess the oxidative stress, the nitric oxide (NO), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, and lipid peroxidation (LPO) were evaluated using chemical methods. The neurochemical biomarkers like AChE, glutamate, and dopamine were evaluated using the ELISA method. Further, the histopathology of brain cells was carried out to assess the neuro-regeneration and neurodegeneration of the neurons.
resultsThere was a significant binding interaction of CXB (score -6.3, -6.5, -5.1, -9.1) and donepezil (score- 5.5, -7.6, -7.0, and -8.6) with AchE (4EY7), β-secretase (2HM1, monoamine oxidase (2Z5X), and glutamate (1PBQ), respectively. MCXB-treated rats (100 mg/kg/day, 200 mg/kg/day) showed increased SOD levels (p < 0.001), whereas NO, catalase, and LPO levels were significantly (p < 0.001) decreased as compared to scopolamine-treated rats. Further, MCXB-treated rats showed a modulatory effect in the level of dopamine and AchE. However, the glutamate level was significantly (p < 0.001) decreased.
conclusionIn addition to that, histopathological examination of the hippocampus part showed remarkable improvement in brain cells. So, the findings of the results revealed that MCXB, in a dose-dependent manner, showed a neuroprotective effect against scopolamine-induced AD. This effect may be attributed to the activation of cholinergic pathways.
