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

Resiniferatoxin (RTX) is an ultrapotent capsaicin analog with a unique spectrum of pharmacological actions. The therapeutic window of RTX is broad, allowing for the full desensitization of pain perception and neurogenic inflammation without causing unacceptable side effects. Intravesical RTX was shown to restore continence in a subset of patients with idiopathic and neurogenic detrusor overactivity. RTX can also ablate sensory neurons as a "molecular scalpel" to achieve permanent analgesia. This targeted (intrathecal or epidural) RTX therapy holds great promise in cancer pain management. Intra-articular RTX is undergoing clinical trials to treat moderate-to-severe knee pain in patients with osteoarthritis. Similar targeted approaches may be useful in the management of post-operative pain or pain associated with severe burn injuries. The current state of this field is reviewed, from preclinical studies through veterinary medicine to clinical trials.
