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

The present review addresses analysis of data demonstrating the role of the hypothalamo-hypophyseal-adrenocortical axis (HHACA) in controlling pain sensitivity. Experiments on rats have demonstrated the analgesic effects of exogenous hormones of all components of the HHACA - corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), and glucocorticoids - in the same models, and have also shown that the opioid and non-opioid mechanisms contribute to the development of the analgesia induced by these hormones. Endogenous glucocorticoids are involved in the development of analgesia mediated by non-opioid mechanisms. Along with the non-opioid mechanisms associated with endogenous glucocorticoids, the analgesic effect of ACTH can be mediated by the opioid mechanism. Unlike the situation with ACTH, the analgesic effect of CRH is mediated exclusively by non-opioid mechanisms, one of which is associated with HHACA hormones, while the other, appearing only on systemic administration, is not associated with these hormones. The actions of glucocorticoids on pain are mediated by neurons in the central gray matter of the midbrain.
