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

aimsFatty acid-binding protein (FABP) regulates polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) intracellular trafficking and signal transduction. Our previous studies demonstrated that the alteration of PUFA in the hypothalamus is involved in pain process. However, how FABP subtypes change during pain remain unclear. Here, we examined the expression changes and localization in the hypothalamic FABP subtype in postoperative pain model mice.

methodsPaw incision-induced postoperative methods were adopted as a pain model in male ddY mice. Mechanical allodynia was examined using the von Frey test. The analysis of several FABPs mRNA was measured by real-time PCR, and cellular localization of its protein level was measured by immunofluorescent study.

resultsPostoperative pain mouse elicited mechanical allodynia on Day 2 after paw incision, and mRNA expression of FABP3 increased significantly in the hypothalamus in the postoperative pain mouse model compared to that in control mice. FABP3 protein expressed in the median eminence and the arcuate nucleus, and colocalized with Iba-1, which is a microglial cell marker. Its protein level significantly increased in the median eminence on Day 2 after incision and returned to the control level on Day 4 after incision.

conclusionsOur findings indicate that FABP3 in the median eminence may change in pain stimuli and may represent a molecular link controlling pain.
