N-Acetylcysteine in Neurological Disorders: A Systematic Review of Clinical and Translational Evidence Across Seven Disorders.
Synthesis in International journal of molecular sciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is a glutathione precursor with established antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that has been investigated as a neuroprotective agent across multiple neurological conditions. This systematic review systematically mapped the clinical evidence for NAC across seven neurological disorders. PubMed and Cochrane Library were searched for studies published between 1 January 1995 and 31 December 2025. Twenty-three studies were included: traumatic brain injury (TBI,
