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

Various pain conditions may be associated with depressed mood. However, the effect of inflammatory or neuropathic pain on depression-like behavior and its associated time frame has not been well established in rat models. This frontward study investigated the differences in pain behavior, depression-like behavior, and serotonin transporter (SERT) distribution in the brain between rats subjected to spared nerve injury (SNI)-induced neuropathic pain or complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA)-induced inflammatory pain. A dynamic plantar aesthesiometer and an acetone spray test were used to evaluate mechanical and cold allodynia responses, and depression-like behavior was examined using a forced swimming test and sucrose preference test. We also investigated SERT expression by using positron emission tomography. We found that the inflammation-induced pain was less severe than neuropathic pain from days 3 to 28 after induced pain; however, the CFA-injected rats exhibited more noticeable depression-like behavior and had significantly reduced SERT expression in the brain regions (thalamus and striatum) at an early stage (on days 14, 21, and 28 in two groups of CFA-injected rats versus day 28 in SNI rats). We speculated that not only the pain response after initial injury but also the subsequent neuroinflammation may have been the crucial factors influencing depression-like behavior in rats.
