What each study number lets you check

What to check when you follow a study number

A paper may report a change in animals without showing any benefit for people. That limit matters to you when a claim about memory starts with a rat experiment.

Find a study here using the number printed next to the result you read. The list covers Semax, Selank, the comparison, the questions, and the home page.

The papers come from journals and Russian study reports checked by other scientists. Some Russian papers have English summaries in PubMed, a service for finding medical research.

You can't judge whether a result is trustworthy just from the language of the journal. More useful questions ask who was tested and whether other researchers independently found the same change.

The peptide pages explain where findings from one region lack independent checks in Western countries. The study titles below keep their original scientific wording, which can be harder to read than the findings explained on those pages.
