Synthetic and Natural Radioprotective Agents: Recent Status and their Underlying Mechanism of Action.
Review in Current pharmaceutical biotechnology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Various substances possessing radiation scavenging properties, known as radioprotectors, play a crucial role in shielding organisms from the harmful effects of ionizing radiation (IR) by preventing cellular damage caused by free radicals. Initially, synthetic radioprotectors were developed using thiol synthetic compounds. However, among these, only amifostine (WR-2721) underwent clinical testing as a radioprotector. Various composites with different chemical structures other than thiol compounds were also investigated. However, synthetic radioprotectors are known to be associated with severe side effects, which lead to an inclination towards natural substances. Plants and natural products have emerged as promising sources of radioprotectors, renowned for their non-toxic nature across a broad range of doses and their cost-effectiveness. Radioprotectors are employed in diverse pharmaceutical approaches to mitigate the toxicities induced by radiation. The present review encompasses a detailed account of various synthetic and naturally occurring compounds possessing radioprotective properties, and different investigations related to their radioprotective action, ranging from free radicals scavenging to gene therapy, have also been precisely covered. Numerous radioprotectors have different mechanisms of action, and have proven benefits of naturally occurring compounds over chemically synthesized ones.
