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

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), ligand-gated ion channels involved in key physiological processes, show pharmacological diversity across receptor subtypes and species. The structurally similar anthelmintic compounds pyrantel, morantel, and oxantel differentially affect the α3β2 and α4β2 nAChR subtypes. Mutation analysis located the modulator binding sites to β(+)/α(-) interface pockets, homologous to the orthosteric agonist sites. We present here the synthesis and pharmacological characterization of 10 oxantel analogs with various phenyl substituents, planarity, and
