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

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the accumulation of Aβ42 peptides, which contribute to oxidative stress, apoptosis, and mitochondrial dysfunction in neurons. Garcinone D (GD), a bioactive xanthone derived from mangosteen, has shown promise as a neuroprotective agent; however, its mechanisms of action against Aβ42-induced neurotoxicity remain insufficiently defined. This study examined the protective effects of GD in Aβ42-treated neuronal cells, focusing on key molecular pathways. Our results demonstrate that GD significantly enhances cell viability and stabilizes mitochondrial function while reducing reactive oxygen species and apoptotic markers in Aβ42-treated cells. Additionally, GD activates key antioxidant pathways involving Nrf2 and HO-1, and inhibits caspase activity, thereby demonstrating a multifaceted approach to neuroprotection. These findings suggest that GD could serve as a valuable therapeutic candidate for AD by addressing multiple aspects of cellular damage that contribute to neurodegeneration. By promoting mitochondrial health while modulating oxidative and apoptotic pathways, GD shows potential for advancing therapeutic strategies in neurodegenerative disorders.
