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

In this study, we tested our working hypothesis that inhibiting the activation of microglia by systemic minocycline treatments can decrease the dosage of local tramadol injection in inflammatory pain. This study was therefore aimed to evaluate the actions of intraplantarly injected tramadol, intraperitoneally injected minocycline, or their combined treatments on the inflammation-induced hypernociception (thermal hyperalgesia, mechanical allodynia), edema, and pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokine levels of paw and spinal cord tissues in a rat model of carrageenan-induced hindpaw inflammation. While local tramadol or systemic minocycline caused a significant anti-hypernociceptive effect their combined treatments significantly enhanced anti-hypernociceptive action compared to each agent applied alone. Also anti-edematous actions of combined treatment were higher than that of their individual administrations. In addition, combined treatment significantly decreased the level of the pro-inflammatory cytokines and caused significant increases in anti-inflammatory cytokine level of paw and spinal cord tissues. The present finding can suggest that combined treatments of local tramadol and systemic minocycline may decrease the dose requirements for anti-hypernociceptive actions of local tramadol and this combination therapy might be a beneficial option for the inflammatory pain relief.
