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

objectiveWe examined the distribution of artemin and its receptor, glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor family receptor alpha3 (GFRalpha3), in the dura mater of rats.

backgroundArtemin, a member of the glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor family, is a vasculature-derived growth factor shown to regulate migration of sympathetic neuroblasts and targeting of sympathetic innervation. The artemin receptor, GFRalpha3, is present in both sympathetic efferents and a subpopulation of nociceptive afferents. Recent evidence has shown that artemin may contribute to inflammatory hyperalgesia. The extent to which artemin is present in the dural vasculature and its relationship to GFRalpha3 containing fibers have yet to be investigated.

methodsWe used retrograde labeling, double and triple labeling with immunohistochemistry on the dura mater and trigeminal ganglia of female Sprague-Dawley rats.

resultsArtemin-like immunoreactivity (-LI) was detected in the smooth muscle of dural vasculature. GFRalpha3-LI was present in nerve fibers that closely associated with tyrosine hydroxylase or calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). CGRP-LI and transient receptor potential ion channel 1 (TRPV1)-LI were present in all GFRalpha3-positive dural afferents, which constituted 22% of the total population of dural afferents.

conclusionsThese anatomical results support the hypothesis that artemin contributes to dural afferent activity, and possibly migraine pain, through modulation of both primary afferent and sympathetic systems.
