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

introductionNeuropathic pain (NP) is the most debilitating of all clinical pain syndromes and may be a consequence of dysfunction in the somatosensory nervous system. Unfortunately, the pathogenesis of NP is not fully understood yet and it cannot be cured totally. Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) is a type of RNA molecule greater than 200 nucleotides, and dysregulated expression of lncRNAs play a critical role in the facilitation of NP. Previous study showed the expression level of LOC100911498 in the spinal cords of spared nerve injury (SNI) rats were increased. This research was aimed at exploring what role LOC100911498 plays in the pathophysiological process of NP.

methodsThe mechanical withdrawal threshold (MWT) of rats was measured by the von Frey test. The expression levels of P2X4 receptor (P2X4R), ionized calcium-binding adaptor molecule 1 (Iba-1), p-p38 and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in spinal cords were detected, respectively.

resultsOur results suggested that the level of LOC100911498 in SNI rats was markedly higher than that in the sham group; the MWT values in rats were treated with LOC100911498siRNA were increased, and the expression levels of P2X4R, Iba-1, p-p38 and BDNF in SNI+ LOC100911498siRNA group were reduced compared with those in the SNI group.

conclusionOur study indicated the effects lncRNA LOC100911498 siRNA exerted on NP were mediated by P2X4R on microglia in the spinal cords of rats. Further, LOC100911498 may be a novel positive regulator of NP by regulating the expression and function of the P2X4R.
