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

background and purposeThe use of opioids in treating pain is limited due to significant side effects including somnolence, constipation, analgesic tolerance, addiction and respiratory depression. Pre-clinical studies have shown that neurokinin 1 (NK(1) ) receptor antagonists block opioid-induced antinociceptive tolerance and may inhibit opioid-induced rewarding behaviours. Here, we have characterized a bifunctional peptide with both opioid agonist and NK(1) antagonist pharmacophores in a rodent model of neuropathic pain. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: Rats were evaluated for behavioural responses to both tactile and thermal stimuli in either an uninjured, sham- or nerve-injured state. TY005 (Tyr-DAla-Gly-Phe-Met-Pro-Leu-Trp-O-3,5-Bn(CF(3) )(2) ) was delivered spinally or systemically to assess the antinociceptive effects after acute exposure. Motor skills were evaluated using the rotarod test to determine potential sedative effects. Spinal TY005 was given chronically to sham- or nerve-injured animals to determine the development of tolerance. KEY

resultsBolus injections of TY005 produced dose-dependent antinociception in non-injured animals and alleviated nerve injury-induced thermal and tactile hypersensitivities (i.e. antihyperalgesia) more effectively than morphine. Sedative effects were not evident from the rotarod test at doses that were antihyperalgesic, nor at doses threefold higher. Repeated administration of TY005 did not lead to the development of antihyperalgesic tolerance or alter sensory thresholds. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: Collectively, the data suggest that opioid agonist/NK(1) antagonist bifunctional peptides represent a promising novel approach to the management of chronic pain without the development of tolerance, reducing the need for escalation of doses and unwanted side effects associated with opiates alone.
