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

Diabetic neuropathic pain is one of the most devasting disorders of peripheral nervous system. The loss of GABAergic inhibition is associated with the development of painful diabetic neuropathy. The current study evaluated the potential of 3-Hydroxy-2-methoxy-6-methyl flavone (3-OH-2'MeO6MF), to ameliorate peripheral neuropathic pain using an STZ-induced hyperglycemia rat model. The pain threshold was assessed by tail flick, cold, mechanical allodynia, and formalin test on days 0, 14, 21, and 28 after STZ administration accompanied by evaluation of several biochemical parameters. Administration of 3-OH-2'-MeO6MF (1,10, 30, and 100 mg/kg, i.p) significantly enhanced the tail withdrawal threshold in tail-flick and tail cold allodynia tests. 3-OH-2'-MeO6MF also increased the paw withdrawal threshold in mechanical allodynia and decreased paw licking time in the formalin test. Additionally, 3-OH-2'-MeO6MF also attenuated the increase in concentrations of myeloperoxidase (MPO), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), nitrite, TNF-α, and IL 6 along with increases in glutathione (GSH). Pretreatment of pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) (40 mg/kg, i.p.) abolished the antinociceptive effect of 3-OH-2'-MeO6MF in mechanical allodynia. Besides, the STZ-induced alterations in the GABA concentration and GABA transaminase activity attenuated by 3-OH-2'-MeO6MF treatment suggest GABAergic mechanisms. Molecular docking also authenticates the involvement of α2β2γ2L GABA-A receptors and GABA-T enzyme in the antinociceptive activities of 3-OH-2'-MeO6MF.
