The Effect of SARS-COV-2 Protein Fragments on the Dimerization of α-Synuclein.
Article in ACS chemical neuroscience, 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
There is evidence that amyloidogenic segments in SARS-COV-2 proteins can induce aggregation of α-synuclein (αS), the main component of brain-located amyloids whose presence is connected with Parkinson's Disease (PD). Using molecular dynamics simulations, we showed in earlier work that SARS-COV-2 protein fragments shift the ensemble of αS chains toward more aggregation-prone conformations. However, the mechanism by which these chains assemble into fibrils, the presumed neurotoxic agents in PD, is not clear. The first step on that route is the formation of dimers. For this reason, we have now, using again molecular dynamics simulations, studied how the fragment
