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

objectiveTo investigate the signaling pathways after astrocytes were activated in neuropathic pain.

methodsThirty-six Sprague Dawley (s.d.) rats were randomly divided into two groups (each group with 18 s.d. rats) including chronic constriction injury (CCI) of the sciatic nerve model group and sham operation group. Operation was perform ed on the right leg in all rats. The lumbar spin al cord (L4 and L5) was taken to make paraffin slices on the 1st day before operation and the 1st, 3rd, 7th, 14th and 28th day after operation in each group. Paraffin slices were labeled with p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) by immunofluorescence staining, and then were co-labeled with hexaribonucleotide binding protein-3 (NeuN), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and anti-integrin αM (CD11b) antibody (OX-42) to explore the associations of p38MAPK and JNK with nerve cells or glial cell.

resultsCompared with sham group, the pain threshold was significantly decreased, and astrocyte-activated markers, GFAP and vimentin were significantly increased in CCI group. The mean fluorescence intensities of p38MAPK and JNK were increased in the right spinal dorsal horn of CCI group. The coexpression of JNK and GFAP was found in astrocytes of the spinal dorsal horn in CCI group.

conclusionJNK signal transduction pathway is involved in the pain signaling transduction of astrocytes.
