miR-223 Inhibits the Polarization and Recruitment of Macrophages via NLRP3/IL-1
Article in Pain research & management, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 30 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
Background: miRNA is an essential factor in neuropathic pain. However, the underlying mechanism of miRNA in neuropathic pain remains unclear. Objective: To explore the potential role of miR-223 in neuropathic pain in a mice model of chronic sciatic nerve injury. Methods: Mice were divided into the sham group, CCI group, CCI + Lenti-vector group, and CCI + Lenti-miR-223 group. Flow cytometry was used to detect the neuronal apoptosis and the proportion of M1/M2 macrophages in each group. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression levels of ASC, caspase-1, IL-1 Results: The overexpression of miR-233 significantly reduced the neuropathic pain caused by CCI and reduced the apoptosis and inflammatory factor expression. miR-223 inhibits the expression of NLRP3 by directly binding to the 3'-untranslated region. Overexpression of miR-223 reduces the protein levels of NLRP3, ASC, caspase-1, IL-1 Conclusion: miR-223 may facilitate the development of neuropathic pain in CCI mice by inhibiting NLRP3-mediated neuroinflammation.
