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

objectiveThis study explored the effects and mechanisms of Huangqi Guizhi Wuwu Decoction on chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain (CINP).

methodsBodyweight and related behavioral testing of the rat model were utilized to investigate the effects of Huangqi Guizhi Wuwu Decoction on CINP. ELISA was used to measure the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6, in the serum of chronic CINP rats. Immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis were performed to detect the expression of MAPK pathway related-proteins namely ERK1/2, p38, and JNK, and the expression of downstream essential proteins such as c-Fos, CREB, and NF-κB.

resultsBody weight and related behavioral testing of the rat model suggests that Huangqi Guizhi Wuwu Decoction can improve the slow weight gain of oxaliplatin-induced chronic CINP model rats and effectively prevent and treat oxaliplatin-induced regular CIPN rat model of hyperalgesia. It can also oppress the mechanical pain threshold, cold pain threshold, and heat pain threshold decreased. Furthermore, by ELISA, immunohistochemistry, and western blot analysis, we found that Huangqi Guizhi Wuwu Decoction can down-regulate the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in the serum of chronic CINP rats induced by oxaliplatin. It also suppresses the expression of MAPK pathway related-proteins ERK1/2, p38, and JNK. This results in a decrease in the expression of downstream essential proteins, c-Fos, CREB, and Nf-κB.

conclusionsIn conclusion, we found that Huangqi Guizhi Wuwu Decoction can combat nerve cell injury, reduce pain sensitization, and prevent and repair the damage of nerve cells in the oxaliplatin CINP model rats via TNFα/IL-1β/IL-6/MAPK/NF-kB pathway.
