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

Increasing evidence indicates that pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) are involved in neuropathic pain after peripheral nerve injury (PNI). While a significant number of studies support an association between neuropathic pain and the innate immune response mediated through Toll-like receptors, a family of PRRs, the roles of other types of PRRs are largely unknown. In this study, we have focused on the macrophage-inducible C-type lectin (Mincle), a PRR allocated to the C-type lectin receptor family. Here, we show that Mincle is involved in neuropathic pain after PNI. Mincle-deficient mice showed impaired PNI-induced mechanical allodynia. After PNI, expression of Mincle mRNA was rapidly increased in the injured spinal nerve. Most Mincle-expressing cells were identified as infiltrating leucocytes, although the migration of leucocytes was also observed in Mincle-deficient mice. Furthermore, Mincle-deficiency affected the induction of genes, which are reported to contribute to neuropathic pain after PNI in the dorsal root ganglia and spinal dorsal horn. These results suggest that Mincle is involved in triggering sequential processes that lead to the pathogenesis of neuropathic pain.
