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

There is extensive interaction between systems involved in pain processing and motivation, where the aberrant functioning of salience circuits likely contributes to chronic pain, as well as increased susceptibility to opioid misuse and opioid use disorder. This study asks to what extent mu opioid receptors (MORs) in dopamine D1 receptor (D1R), D2 receptor (D2R) or adenosine A2a receptor (A2aR) expressing neurons contribute to the expression of pain and opioid antinociception. We ablated MORs in dopamine receptor expressing neurons by breeding D1R, D2R or A2aR-cre with MOR
