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

Both spinal cord infiltrating CD4+ T lymphocytes and microglial CD40 contribute to the maintenance of neuropathic pain-like behaviors induced by spinal nerve L5 transection (L5Tx), a murine model of neuropathic pain. Here, we sought to investigate the involvement of multiple chemokines in microglial CD40-mediated and CD4+ T lymphocytes-mediated L5Tx-induced sensory hypersensitivity. Spinal cord chemokine expression in CD4 knockout (KO), CD40 KO, and wild type (WT) BALB/c mice was determined at the protein level via multiplex assays and at the RNA level via quantitative real-time PCR. In WT mice, L5Tx induced significant increases in CCL2, CCL3, and CCL5 expression (protein and RNA) up to day 21 post-L5Tx, while CD4 KO mice displayed blunted, predominantly non-significant, responses in these chemokines at protein levels post-L5Tx. L5Tx also induced increased expression of these chemokines in CD40 KO mice; however, the overall protein levels of these chemokines were significantly lower than those in WT mice. Further, L5Tx induced a significant increase in CXCL1 at the protein level and in CXCR2 at RNA level only in CD40 KO mice. Intrathecal administration of CXCL1 in WT mice significantly reduced L5Tx-induced mechanical hypersensitivity. CD40 KO mice also displayed higher levels of Ly6G (neutrophil marker) RNA expression in the lumbar spinal cord post-L5Tx. Altogether, our data suggest that CD4+ T lymphocytes and microglial CD40 mediate their pro-nociceptive effects in part by promoting selected chemokine responses, and more importantly, CXCL1 can play an anti-nociceptive role in peripheral nerve injury-induced neuropathic pain, which is possibly mediated by infiltrating neutrophils.
