A Novel Rat Model to Study Postsurgical Pain After Joint Replacement Surgery.
Article in Journal of pain research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Purpose: The mechanisms underlying chronic postsurgical pain after joint replacement (JR) are complex, and it has been suggested that chronic postsurgical pain can develop as a result of inadequate acute pain management. Few studies have addressed acute pain after JR using specific animal models. This study aimed to develop a novel JR model focused on postsurgical pain assessment and the time course of pain recovery. Materials and Methods: Rats were allocated to the following three groups: sham (joint exposure), joint destruction (JD; resection of the femoral head), and JR (femoral head replacement using an originally developed implant). The time course of postsurgical pain behavior was measured using a dynamic weight-bearing apparatus, along with radiological assessments. The expression of calcitonin gene-related peptide-immunoreactive (CGRP-IR) neurons in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) was evaluated by immunohistochemistry on days 28 and 42. Results: The ratio of weight-bearing distribution in the JR group gradually recovered from day 14 and reached the same level as that in the sham group on day 42, which was significantly greater than that in the JD group after day 7 (p<0.05). Radiologically, no significant issues were found, except for transient central migration of the implant in the JR group. The percentage of CGRP-IR DRG neurons in the JR group was significantly lower than that in the JD group on day 28 (mean, 37.4 vs 58.1%, p<0.05) and day 42 (mean, 32.3 vs 50.0%, p<0.05). Conclusion: Our novel JR model presented acute postsurgical pain behavior that was successfully recovered to the baseline level at day 42 after surgery. Difference of the pain manifestation between the JR and JD groups could be supported by the expression of CGRP-IR in DRG neurons. This model is the first step toward understanding detailed mechanisms of post-JR pain.
