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

backgroundIschemia-reperfusion injury causes chronic postischemia pain (CPIP), and rats with higher glycemia during ischemia-reperfusion injury exhibit increased allodynia. Glycemia-induced elevation of nuclear factor κB (NFκB) may contribute to increased allodynia.

methodsGlycemia during a 3-h ischemia-reperfusion injury was manipulated by: normal feeding; or normal feeding with administration of insulin; dextrose; or insulin/dextrose. In these groups, NFκB was measured in ipsilateral hind paw muscle and spinal dorsal horn by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and SN50, an NFκB inhibitor, was administered to determine its differential antiallodynic effects depending on glycemia.

resultsCPIP fed/insulin rats (12.03 ± 4.9 g, N = 6) had less allodynia than fed, fed/insulin/dextrose, and fed/dextrose rats (6.29 ± 3.37 g, N = 7; 4.57 ± 3.03 g, N = 6; 2.95 ± 1.10 g, N = 9), respectively. Compared with fed rats (0.209 ± 0.022 AU, N = 7), NFκB in ipsilateral plantar muscles was significantly lower for fed/insulin rats, and significantly higher for fed/dextrose rats (0.152 ± 0.053 AU, N = 6; 0.240 ± 0.057 AU, N = 7, respectively). Furthermore, NFκB in the dorsal horn of fed, fed/insulin/dextrose, and fed/dextrose rats (0.293 ± 0.049 AU; 0.267 ± 0.037 AU; 0.315 ± 0.015 AU, respectively, N = 6 for each) was significantly higher than in fed/insulin animals (0.267 ± 0.037 AU, N = 6). The antiallodynic SN50 dose-response curves of CPIP rats in the fed/insulin/dextrose, fed/dextrose, and fed conditions exhibited a rightward shift compared with the fed/insulin group. The threshold SN50 dose of CPIP fed/dextrose, fed/insulin/dextrose, and fed rats (328.94 ± 92.4 ng, 77.80 ± 44.50 ng, and 24.89 ± 17.20 ng, respectively) was higher than that for fed/insulin rats (4.06 ± 7.04 ng).

conclusionsNFκB was activated in a glycemia-dependent manner in CPIP rats. Hypoglycemic rats were more sensitive to SN50 than rats with higher glycemia. The finding that SN50 reduces mechanical allodynia suggests that NFκB inhibitors might be useful for treating postischemia pain.
