The Effect of Polyethylene Terephthalate Nanoplastics on Amyloid-β Peptide Fibrillation.
Article in Molecules (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Exposure of organisms to nanoplastics (NPs) is inevitable given their global abundance and environmental persistence. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is a common plastic used in a wide range of products, including clothing and food and beverage packaging. Recent studies suggest that NPs can cross the blood-brain barrier and cause potential neurotoxicity. It is widely known that aggregation of amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides in the brain is a pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD). While the impact of nanoplastics such as polystyrene (PS) on amyloid aggregation has been studied, the effects of PET NPs remain unexplored. In this study, we examined the effect of PET NPs of different sizes (PET
