Antinociceptive effects of lead acetate in sciatic nerve chronic constriction injury model of peripheral neuropathy in male Wistar rats.
Article in Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's archives of pharmacology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The toxicological effects of lead and its compounds have overshadowed its possible health beneficial effects. Currently, the success rate for treating neuropathic pain has been very low. This study investigated the antinociceptive effects of orally administered low dose lead acetate in sciatic nerve ligated Wistar rats. Thirty Wistar rats randomly divided into five groups were used for this study. Chronic constriction injury (CCI) was used to induce neuropathic pain in Wistar rats. Allodynic and hyperalgesic signs were investigated using von Frey filaments and hotplate, respectively. Morris water maze test was used to assess the memory functions of the rats. The study revealed that oral administration of low-dose lead acetate significantly (p < 0.05) increased pain thresholds of ligated rats. CCI enhanced memory function in Wistar rats which was significantly decreased following lead acetate administration. The findings suggest that lead acetate possesses antinociceptive effects in peripherally induced neuropathic pain model in Wistar rats.
