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

Endogenous enkephalins and delta opiates affect sensory function and pain sensation by inhibiting synaptic transmission in sensory circuits via delta opioid receptors (DORs). DORs have long been suspected of mediating these effects by modulating voltage-dependent Ca(2+) entry in primary sensory neurons. However, not only has this hypothesis never been validated in these cells, but in fact several previous studies have only turned up negative results. By using whole-cell current recordings, we show that the delta enkephalin analog [D-Ala(2), D-Leu(5)]-enkephalin (DADLE) inhibits, via DORs, L-, N-, P-, and Q-high voltage-activated Ca(2+) channel currents in cultured rat dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons. The percentage of responding cells was remarkably high (75%) within a novel subpopulation of substance P-containing neurons compared with the other cells (18-35%). DADLE (1 microM) inhibited 32% of the total barium current through calcium channels (I(Ba)). A delta (naltrindole, 1 microM), but not a mu (beta-funaltrexamine, 5 microM), antagonist prevented the DADLE response, whereas a DOR-2 subtype (deltorphin-II, 100 nM), but not a DOR-1 (DPDPE, 1 microM), agonist mimicked the response. L-, N-, P-, and Q-type currents contributed, on average, 18, 48, 14, and 16% to the total I(Ba) and 19, 50, 26, and 20% to the DADLE-sensitive current, respectively. The drug-insensitive R-type current component was not affected by the agonist. This work represents the first demonstration that DORs modulate Ca(2+) entry in sensory neurons and suggests that delta opioids could affect diverse Ca(2+)-dependent processes linked to Ca(2+) influx through different high-voltage-activated channel types.
