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.
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
purposeIn vivo and ex vivo inhibition of ectopic activity of clinically used and newly developed sodium channel (NaV) blockers were quantified in the rat spinal nerve ligation (SNL) model using a pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PKPD) approach and correlated to in vitro NaV1.7 channel inhibition and clinical effective concentrations.
methodsIn vivo, drug exposure and inhibition of ectopic activity were assessed in anaesthetized SNL rats at two dose levels. Ex vivo, compounds were applied at increasing concentrations to dorsal root ganglias isolated from SNL rats. The inhibitory potency (IC 50 ) was estimated using PKPD analysis. In vitro IC 50 was estimated using an electrophysiology-based assay using recombinant rat and human NaV1.7 expressing HEK293 cells.
resultsIn vivo and ex vivo inhibition of ectopic activity correlated well with the in vitro inhibition on the rat NaV1.7 channel. The estimated IC 50s for inhibition of ectopic activity in the SNL model occurred at similar unbound concentrations as clinical effective concentrations in humans.
conclusionsInhibition of ectopic activity in the SNL model could be useful in predicting clinical effective concentrations for novel sodium channel blockers. In addition, in vitro potency could be used for screening, characterization and selection of compounds, thereby reducing the need for in vivo testing.
