Anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory actions of sulforaphane in chronic constriction injury-induced neuropathic pain mice.

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
Neuropathic pain is still considered as incurable disease as current therapies are not ideal in terms of efficacy and tolerability. It is imperative to search for novel drugs to obtain better treatments. Sulforaphane (SFN), a derivative of glucoraphanin present in cruciferous vegetables, exhibits therapeutic effects on inflammation-related diseases. Since inflammation plays an important role in regulating chronic pain, in the present study, we investigated anti-nociceptive effects of SFN and its underlying mechanisms in a neuropathic pain mouse model, sciatic nerve chronic constriction injury (CCI). SFN (0.1-100 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally for 7 days when pain behaviors, including mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia, reached to the maximum in CCI mice. We observed that SFN dose-dependently attenuated CCI-induced pain behavioral hypersensitivity, accompanied by reduction in pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6) and upregulation of an anti-inflammatory cytokine (IL-10). Moreover, SFN counteracted CCI enhancement of COX2 and iNOS in injured nerves, two key enzymes implicated in inflammation and neuropathic pain. Furthermore, pretreatment of naloxone, an antagonist of opioid receptors, significantly blocked SFN attenuation of behavioral hypersensitivity without affecting SFN modulation of inflammatory cytokines in CCI mice. Interestingly, CCI-induced increase in µ-opioid receptors in injured sciatic nerves was further increased by SFN treatment. Taken together, SFN has both anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory actions.
