Effects of oral administration of nonselective Trk inhibitor on bladder overactivity in rodent models of prostatic inflammation.

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
backgroundOur research focused on the assessment of the impact of systemic inhibition of Trk receptors, which bind to nerve growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), on bladder hypersensitivity in two distinct rodent models of prostatic inflammation (PI).
methodsMale Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups (n = 6 each): the control group (no PI, vehicle administration), the untreated group (PI, vehicle administration), and the treated group (PI, nonselective Trk inhibitor, GNF 5837, administration). PI in rats was induced by a intraprostatic injection of 5% formalin. Posttreatment, we carried out conscious cystometry and a range of histological and molecular analyses. Moreover, the study additionally evaluated the effects of a nonselective Trk inhibitor on bladder overactivity in a mouse model of PI, which was induced by prostate epithelium-specific conditional deletion of E-cadherin.
resultsThe rat model of PI showed upregulations of NGF and BDNF in both bladder and prostate tissues in association with bladder overactivity and inflammation in the ventral lobes of the prostate. GNF 5837 treatment effectively mitigated these PI-induced changes, along with reductions in TrkA, TrkB, TrkC, and TRPV1 mRNA expressions in L6-S1 dorsal root ganglia. Also, in the mouse PI model, GNF 5837 treatment similarly improved bladder overactivity.
conclusionsThe findings of our study suggest that Trk receptor inhibition, which reduced bladder hypersensitivity and inflammatory responses in the prostate, along with a decrease in overexpression of Trk and TRPV1 receptors in sensory pathways, could be an effective treatment strategy for male lower urinary tract symptoms associated with PI and bladder overactivity.
