Peripheral inflammation sensitizes P2X receptor-mediated responses in rat dorsal root ganglion neurons.
Article in The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience, 2002. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 94 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
ATP-gated P2X receptors in nociceptive sensory neurons participate in transmission of pain signals from the periphery to the spinal cord. To determine the role of P2X receptors under injurious conditions, we examined ATP-evoked responses in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons isolated from rats with peripheral inflammation, induced by injections of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) into the hindpaw. Application of ATP induced both fast- and slow-inactivating currents in control and inflamed neurons. CFA treatment had no effect on the affinity of ATP for its receptors or receptor phenotypes. On the other hand, inflammation caused a twofold to threefold increase in both ATP-activated currents, altered the voltage dependence of P2X receptors, and enhanced the expression of P2X2 and P2X3 receptors. The increase in ATP responses gave rise to large depolarizations that exceeded the threshold of action potentials in inflamed DRG neurons. Thus, P2X receptor upregulation could account for neuronal hypersensitivity and contribute to abnormal pain responses associated with inflammatory injuries. These results suggest that P2X receptors are useful targets for inflammatory pain therapy.
