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

Pain is the main complication of sickle cell disease (SCD). Individuals with SCD experience acute pain episodes and chronic daily pain, both of which are managed with opioids. Opioids have deleterious side effects and use-associated stigma that make them less than ideal for SCD pain management. After recognizing the neuropathic qualities of SCD pain, clinically-approved therapies for neuropathic pain, including gabapentin, now present unique non-opioid based therapies for SCD pain management. These experiments explored the efficacy of gabapentin in relieving evoked and spontaneous chronic pain, and hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced acute pain in mouse models of SCD. When administered following H/R, a single dose of gabapentin alleviated mechanical hypersensitivity in SCD mice by decreasing peripheral fibre activity. Gabapentin treatment also alleviated spontaneous ongoing pain in SCD mice. Longitudinal daily administration of gabapentin failed to alleviate H/R-induced pain or chronic evoked mechanical, cold or deep tissue hypersensitivity in SCD mice. Consistent with this observation, voltage-gated calcium channel (VGCC) α
