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

N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion (NSF) protein is a homohexameric ATPase that binds to the GluR2 subunit of α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazoleproprionic acid (AMPA) receptors. The stability and movement of AMPA receptors at synapses are important factors that control synaptic strength. NSF is involved in the surface expression regulation of AMPA receptors and consequently synaptic activity. Reduced expression of NSF or reduced interaction of NSF with GluR2 leads to a number of neurological disorders. Using a rat model of L5 spinal nerve ligation (SNL), we investigated the temporal and spatial expression of NSF in injured L5 and uninjured L4 dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons during mechanical allodynia. L5 SNL led to a significant decrease of NSF in both L4 and L5 DRGs observed at 3, 7, and 14 days after injury. In particular, NSF expression in calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)-immunoreactive (IR) and IB4-IR neurons was reduced, whereas NSF expression in NF-200-IR neurons remained unaltered. These results indicate a role for NSF in CGRP-IR and IB4-IR neurons in SNL, with reduced NSF expression possibly contributing to SNL derived neuropathic pain.
