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.

Abstract

background and purposePaclitaxel produces a chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy that persists in 50-60% of cancer patients upon treatment. Evidence from animal models suggests an axonopathy of peripheral A- and C-type fibres that affects their excitability. However, direct effects of paclitaxel on sensory neuron excitability and sexual dimorphism remain poorly understood. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: We used a long-lasting (10 days in vitro) primary culture of rat dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons to investigate the time course effect of paclitaxel on the electrical activity of IB4(-) and IB4(+) sensory neurons of female and male adult Wistar rats. KEY

resultsPaclitaxel strongly and reversibly stimulated spontaneous activity and augmented action potential tonic firing in IB4(-) and IB4(+) neurons in both sexes, peaking at 48 h post-treatment and virtually disappearing at 96 h. Paclitaxel decreased the current rheobase for action potential firing by reducing and accelerating the after-hyperpolarization phase. Molecularly, paclitaxel modulated Na CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: Our data indicate that paclitaxel similarly potentiated IB4(-) and IB4(+) electrogenicity and uncover a potential sex dimorphism in paclitaxel-induced chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. Our in vitro, pre-clinical, chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy paradigm provides a tool for studying the dynamics and underlying molecular mechanisms contributing to nociceptor sensitization in peripheral neuropathies and for testing desensitizing compounds.
