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

Discogenic pain, caused by intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD), is a prevalent and challenging condition to treat effectively. Macrophage infiltration with neural ectopic in-growth resulting from structural disturbances within the intervertebral disc (IVD) is a major cause of discogenic pain. This work systematically reveals how nanoparticles can synergistically regulate the immune microenvironment and mitochondrial communication to attenuate discogenic pain. The antioxidant metal-polyphenol nanoparticle system can sequentially regulate macrophage phenotype and mitochondrial delivery efficiency. This strategy circumvents the necessity for mitochondrial isolation and preservation techniques that are typically required in conventional mitochondrial transplantation procedures. Furthermore, it facilitates the effective and sustained delivery of mitochondria to damaged cells. In vivo, this nanoparticle formulation effectively preserves the IVD height, maintains the structural integrity of the nucleus pulposus (NP), and restores pain thresholds. Thus, this nanoplatform offers an effective approach to traditional surgical treatments for discogenic pain, with significant potential for clinical application.
