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

Joint pain is one of the most common forms of pain and is experienced by almost a third of the population at some time. To date, it has not been possible to treat joint pain effectively and side effects of commonly prescribed drugs are often hazardous. Therefore, improvements in our understanding of causes and mechanisms associated with joint pain are required. Joints and their neighbouring structures are well endowed with nerve fibres which respond to mechanical stimuli. Following local inflammation, the activation threshold of these afferent nerve fibres is significantly decreased, such that even low level stimuli encode nociception.Currently, there is a lack about local mechanisms in synovial tissue. Various receptors, well known from the nervous system, are increasingly being detected in synovial fibroblasts. However, little is known about their function. Innovative new therapies are expected to emerge by targeting various receptors, e.g. the TRPV1- or the P(2)X(4) receptor system.
