Co-Deposited Proteins in Alzheimer's Disease as a Potential Treasure Trove for Drug Repurposing.
Article in Molecules (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Alzheimer's disease (AD) affects an increasing number of people as the human population ages. The main pathological feature of AD, amyloid plaques, consists of the key protein amyloid-β and other co-deposited proteins. These co-deposited proteins and their protein interactors could hold some additional functional insights into AD pathophysiology. For this work, proteins found on amyloid plaques were collected from the AmyCo database. A protein-protein and protein-drug interaction network was constructed with data from the IntAct and DrugBank databases, respectively. In total, there were 12 proteins co-deposited on amyloid plaques that reportedly interact with 513 other proteins and are targets of 72 drugs. These drugs were shown to be almost entirely distinct from the panel of drugs currently approved by the FDA for AD and their corresponding protein targets. In conclusion, this work demonstrates the potential for drug repurposing of drugs that target proteins found in amyloid plaques.
