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

The mechanisms of neuropathic pain after spinal cord injury (SCI) are not fully understood, although spinal and peripheral processes are involved. Maladaptive tropomyosin receptor kinase-B (TrkB) signaling has been implicated in pain hypersensitivity after SCI. A-delta-low threshold mechanoreceptors (Aδ-LTMRs) innervate the hairy skin and normally signal directional touch and are identified by their preferential TrkB expression. This study investigated whether Aδ-LTMRs play a role in at-level pain after thoracic contusion SCI. Using a modified light-dark chamber conditioned place aversion (CPA) paradigm, we assessed chamber preferences and transitions between chambers in response to mechanical stimulation, and optogenetic stimulation of Aδ-LTMRs in the trunk skin of adult TrkB
