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
backgroundNeuroimmune interaction is an underestimated mechanism for lung diseases, and cryoablation is a competitive advantageous technique than other non-pharmacologic interventions for peripheral nerve innervating the lung. However, a lack of cryodenervation model in laboratory rodents leads to the obscure mechanisms for techniques used in clinic.
methodHerein, we developed a novel practical method for mouse peripheral nerve cryoablation, named visualized and simple cryodenervation (VSCD). We first estimated the feasibility, safety and effectiveness of the technique via haematoxylin-eosin staining, histochemistry or immunofluorescence staining and immunoblotting assay. We then constructed the acute lung injury (ALI) model triggered by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to verify the effect of VSCD in the resolution of pulmonary inflammation. Besides, the IL-10 knockout mice were also applied to explain the underlying mechanism of the protective activity of VSCD in ALI mice.
resultWe demonstrated that VSCD was able to induce a reliable and stable blockade of innervation, but reversible structural damage of mouse vagus nerve without detectable toxicity to lung tissues. Cholinergic parasympathetic nerve in the mouse lung coming from vagus nerve was activated at the initial stage (1 week) after VSCD, and blocked 3 weeks later. By use of the ALI mouse model, we found that VSCD effectively decreased pulmonary inflammation and tissue damage in the ALI mice. Moreover, the activated cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway (CAP) and elevated IL-10 expression might explain the protective action of VSCD following LPS challenge.
conclusionThis study fills the gap in the cryoablation for mouse vagus nerve, thereby guiding the application of cryodenervation in clinical management of pulmonary diseases. It also offers evidence of anti-inflammatory potential of VSCD in ALI mouse model and opens therapeutic avenues for the intervention of acute lung inflammation.
