Spinal RAMP1-mediated neuropathic pain sensitisation in the aged mice through the modulation of CGRP-CRLR pain signalling.

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
Pain sensitivity varies depending on both the state and age of an individual. For example, chronic pain is more common in older individuals, but the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. This study revealed that 18-month-old mice (aged) experienced more severe and long-lasting allodynia and hyperalgesia in the chronic constriction injury (CCI)-induced pain state compared to 2-month-old mice. Interestingly, the aged mice had a higher baseline mechanical pain threshold than the adult mice. The expression of spinal receptor-active modification protein 1 (RAMP1), as a key component and regulator of the calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor for nociceptive transmission from the periphery to the spinal cord, was reduced in the physiological state but significantly increased after CCI in the aged mice compared to the adult mice. Moreover, when RAMP1 was knocked down using shRNA, the pain sensitivity of adult mice decreased significantly, and CCI-induced allodynia in aged mice was reduced. These findings suggest that spinal RAMP1 is involved in regulating pain sensitivity in a state- and age-dependent manner. Additionally, interfering with RAMP1 could be a promising strategy for alleviating chronic pain in older individuals.
