An Evaluation of the Anti-Rabies Effect of Bufotenine in Murine Rabies Models to Determine Its Mechanism of Action.
Article in Viruses, 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
Molecules from animals or plant species have been investigated with the aim of treating diseases of epidemiological importance, such as rabies, which is a viral, acute, and infectious disease with approximately 100% lethality. Rabies has been one of the main causes of death in humans concerning infectious diseases. This work investigated the action and preliminary mechanisms of the alkaloid bufotenine in an in vivo model with the rabies virus. A wild-type virus was titrated and injected into mice for the determination of DL50 in the presence or absence of bufotenine. The results reveal that bufotenine has possible action in modulating the immune response of the studied host, suggesting interference in delaying symptom manifestation. Regarding the histological analysis of the CNS of the animals, bufotenine possibly prevented the presence of mononuclear cell inflammatory infiltrate in the meninx's region compared to the positive control and possibly contributed to reducing neuronal degeneration. The use of the bufotenine extracted from the seed of white angico, a plant representative of Brazilian flora, contributed to antiviral activity with effects on the immunological aspects of the host infected by the rabies virus.
