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 detect the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) of rats with bone cancer pain, and to explore the effects of BDNF and anti-BDNF on pain behavior.

methods40 SD rats were randomly divided into Sham group and Cancer group (n=20). Rats in Sham were injected with PBS into the tibia, while rats in Cancer group were injected with Walker 256 cells to construct rat tibial bone cancer pain model. Rats in Cancer group were further divided into physiological saline (NS) group and anti-BDNF group (n=10) to observe the effects of anti-BDNF on pain behavior in rats with bone cancer pain.

resultsExpression level of BDNF and its receptor in DRG of Cancer group was significantly higher than that of Sham group at 3 weeks after inoculation (p⟨0.05). The expression level of BDNF mRNA in the Cancer group was significantly higher than that in the Sham group at 5d, 10d and 20d (p⟨0.05). Hindpaw withdrawal latency was significantly shorter in Cancer group than in Sham group (p⟨0.05). Hindpaw withdrawal mechanical threshold was significantly lower in Cancer group than in Sham group (p⟨0.05). Hindpaw withdrawal latency was significantly longer and hindpaw withdrawal mechanical threshold was significantly higher in anti-BDNF group than in NS group after the use of anti-BDNF (p⟨0.05).

conclusionBDNF can aggravate bone pain in rats, and anti-BDNF has obvious antinociceptive function in bone cancer pain.
