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

We have recently demonstrated that reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavengers ameliorate mechanical allodynia in a rat model of cancer-induced bone pain (CIBP). In the present study, we investigated anti-nociceptive effect of Nox inhibitor apocynin in CIBP in rats. Mechanical allodynia was assessed by Von Frey tests in sham and CIBP group of rats. Western blotting and immunofluorescence technique were conducted to assess the expression levels and cellular localization of Nox2. Results illustrated that after intra-tibial implantation with tumor cells, Nox2 and ROS were both up-regulated in the spinal cord of rats. Injection of apocynin could dose-dependently decrease the abundance of Nox2 and inhibit the development of CIBP. Furthermore, pretreatment with the apocynin could delay the development of CIBP. This study for the first time proved that Nox2 inhibitors could downregulate the production of ROS in CIBP rats, which highlights the fact that Nox inhibitor is an important therapeutic option for CIBP and that, precise targeting inhibitor of different subtypes of Nox enzymes is needed to developed in future.
