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

Diabetic neuropathic pain (DNP) and depression (DP) are the common complications in patients with diabetes. The purpose of our research was to observe whether brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels and tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB) in the nervous system have effects on rats with comorbid DNP and DP, and to determine whether dihydromyricetin (DHM) may influence BDNF/ TrkB pathway to mitigatethe comorbidity. The study showed that DHM treatment could attenuates pain and depressive behavior in DNP and DP combined rats. Compared with the control group, the expression level of BDNF/TrkB in the hippocampus of DNP + DP group were reduced, while the expression levels in the spinal cord and DRG were increased. However, after treatment with DHM, those changes were reversed. Compared with the control group, the level of IL-1β and TNF-α in the hippocampus, spinal cord and DRG in the DNP + DP group was significantly increased, and DHM treatment could reduce the increase. Thus our study indicated that DHM can relief symptoms of DNP and DP by suppressing the BDNF/TrkB pathway and the proinflammatory factor, and BDNF/TrkB pathway may be an effective target for treatment of comorbid DNP and DP.
