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

Cognitive impairments, characterized by deficits in one or more cognitive domains, are common in several pathological conditions but remain inadequately addressed by available pharmacological treatments. Given the complexity and multifaceted mechanisms underpinning these deficits, multi-targeted directed ligands are emerging as promising strategies for developing more effective therapies. In this study, we reported the design, synthesis as well as In Vitro and Ex Vivo assessment of prototypic molecular scaffolds that activate the carbonic anhydrase (CA; EC 4.2.1.1) and inhibit the histone deacetylase (HDAC; EC 3.5.1.98) metalloenzymes. By using the novel object recognition paradigm, we found that these compounds significantly enhanced memory consolidation at doses 10 times lower than single-target reference compounds. Taken together, these results suggest that the dual modulation of CA and HDAC activities by means of a single hybrid molecular entity represents an innovative approach for the management of cognitive symptoms associated with neurodegenerative, neurodevelopment, and psychiatric disorders.
