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

Chronic postoperative pain (CPOP) remains a significant clinical challenge, with central sensitization being an important mechanism. However, the neuronal circuit-mediated mechanisms associated with this disorder are poorly understood. Here, we identified the nucleus accumbens core (AcbC) received excitatory projections from calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII)-positive neurons in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), playing an important role in the development of CPOP. We demonstrated that the AcbC neurons displayed the enhanced responses to both non-nociceptive and nociceptive stimuli following skin/muscle incision and retraction. Furthermore, fiber photometry and electrophysiological recordings confirmed that the activity of the ACC
