Article in Nutrients, 2026. 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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesAccumulation of oxidative damage and brain inflammation plays a role in aging-associated memory impairment. D-galactose (D-gal) is a monosaccharide used to induce aging in rat models by promoting oxidative damage and neuroinflammation.
methodsForty-eight male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats, two months old, were randomly assigned to eight groups: vehicle (0.9% normal saline), D-gal (50 mg/kg), PD (75, 100, and 150 mg/kg), or D-gal (50 mg/kg) co-administered with PD (75, 100 or 150 mg/kg). Spatial memory was assessed using the novel object location (NOL) test. Hippocampal neurogenesis and vascular-associated cell proliferation in the DG were evaluated using immunofluorescence staining for the co-localization of the markers Ki-67/rat endothelial cell antigen-1 (RECA-1) and 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine/neuronal nuclear protein (BrdU/NeuN), as well as doublecortin (DCX).
resultsRats treated with D-gal alone did not show a significant preference for the novel location. Additionally, D-gal treatment reduced the numbers of Ki-67-, Ki-67/RECA-1-, BrdU/NeuN-, and DCX-stained cells in the hippocampus. Conversely, co-administration of PD fruit extract was associated with a significant preference for the novel location, and this treatment also attenuated the D-gal-triggered reductions in cellular markers.
conclusionsThese finding suggest that PD fruit extract exerts a neuroprotective effect against D-gal-induced brain aging, potentially preserving spatial memory-related performance in rats.
