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

Injured somatosensory nervous system cause neuropathic pain which is quite difficult to treat using current approaches. It is therefore important to find new therapeutic options. We have analyzed cedrol effect on chronic constriction injury (CCI) induced neuropathic pain in rats. The mechanical and thermal hypersensitivity were evaluated using the von Frey filament, radiant heat and acetone drop methods. The changes in the levels of biomarkers of oxidative stress including malondialdehyde (MDA) and total thiol (SH), as well as inflammatory mediators including Tumour Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF-α) and Interleukin 6 (IL-6) were estimated in the lumbar portion (L4-L6) of neuropathic rats. Administration of cedrol attenuated the CCI-induced mechanical and thermal hypersensitivity. CCI produced an increase in MDA along with a reduction in SH levels in the spinal cord of the CCI rats. Reduced levels of SH were restored by cedrol. Also, the levels of MDA were reduced in the cedrol-treated CCI rats compared to the untreated CCI rats. Besides, level of TNF-α and IL-6 increased in the spinal cord of CCI group and cedrol could reverse it. The current study showed that cedrol attenuates neuropathic pain in CCI rats by inhibition of inflammatory response and attenuation of oxidative stress.
