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

Neurodegenerative disorders (NDs), such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases (AD and PD), despite having different main neuropathological hallmarks, share several interconnected aetiologic mechanisms and lack effective disease-modifying treatments. The multifactorial nature of these diseases has encouraged the development of new drugs such as multi-target-directed ligands (MTDLs). In this work, an anti-AD drug (rivastigmine, RIV) was fused and conjugated with a series of antioxidant scaffolds to obtain a small library of RIV-antiox hybrids. In addition to inhibitory activity towards both cholinesterases, these hybrids exhibited radical scavenging activity, inhibition of Aβ aggregation, and neuroprotection against cell death induced in AD models. The relevant anti-AD properties already found for these hybrids challenged us to also assess their capacity to modulate and interfere with ROS-associated harmful dysfunctions, namely in the dysregulation of biometal ions (Fe
