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

Our ability to sense mechanical cues from our environment depend on the capacity of molecular sensor capable of converting mechanical energy into biochemical or electrical signals. This process, termed mechanotransduction, relies on the activity of mechanosensitive ion channels (MSCs) that are expressed in most tissues, including cells of the inner and outer ear, sensory and sympathetic neurons, and vascular cells. However, the precise role these channels play in the physiology of the cells and organs, where they are expressed is not completely understood. In this review, we will explore some of the recent findings on the role of MSCs to our sense of mechanical pain.
