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

Introduction: A combination of Corydalis Rhizoma (the dried tuber of Methods: Lipopolysaccharide-induced cellular inflammation model and chronic compression injury (CCI) rat model were used to study the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of YB60. Proteomics and molecular biology experiments were applied to explore the potential analgesic mechanism of YB60. Results: The results demonstrated that YB60 significantly decreased inflammatory cytokine levels both in cellular models and rat serum, while concurrently elevating pain thresholds in CCI rats. Proteomic analysis indicated that YB60 could upregulate the expression of Membrane Bound O-Acyltransferase Domain Containing 2 (Mboat2), a newly confirmed marker of ferroptosis. Furthermore, YB60 prevented ferroptosis in the spinal cords of CCI rats. Western blotting and immunofluorescent dual staining further revealed that YB60 increased the expression of Mboat2 and its upstream signaling molecule Androgen receptor (AR). Results in PC12 cells Conclusion: These findings indicated that YB60 exerted its analgesic effect by inhibiting ferroptosis in spinal cord neurons via modulation of the AR/Mboat2 pathway.
