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

objectiveThe objective of the present investigation was to study the neuroprotective effect of the quercetin in alcohol induced neuropathy in rats. MATERIALS AND

methodsMale Wistar rats were administered alcohol (10 gm/kg, 35% v/v, p.o. b.i.d.) for 10 weeks. Alpha tocopherol (vitamin E) was used as a standard drug. Vitamin E (100 mg/kg) and quercetin (10, 20 and 40 mg/kg) were co-administered 1 h after ethanol administration for 10 weeks. Behavioral assessment parameters, such as motor incoordination, tactile allodynia, mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia were recorded in all groups of animals. Meanwhile, motor nerve conduction velocity was also recorded. Biochemical parameters, such as nitric oxide (NO), Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, malondialdehyde (MDA) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) were estimated in sciatic nerve. Apoptosis index was determined with help of DNA fragmentation in sciatic nerve. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: Chronic ethanol administration for 10 weeks resulted in significant (P < 0.001) development of neuropathic pain. Chronic treatment with quercetin (20 and 40 mg/kg) for 10 weeks significantly (P < 0.001) attenuated allodynia, hyperalgesia as well as motor coordination and impaired nerve conduction velocity along with decreased level of membrane-bound Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase. It also significantly (P < 0.001) decreased elevated levels of MDA, MPO as well as pro-inflammatory mediators, such as NO. It also decreased the extent of DNA fragmentation. This alteration was more significant in vitamin E treated rats (100 mg/kg). Quercetin is a proven antioxidant that might have decreased the oxidative stress produced by chronic alcoholism.

conclusionThe present investigation elucidates neuroprotective effect of quercetin in alcohol induced neuropathy through modulation of membrane-bound inorganic phosphate enzyme and inhibition of release of oxido-inflammatory mediators, such as MDA, MPO and NO.
