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

An understudied symptom of the genetic disorder Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is chronic idiopathic pain. We used targeted editing of Nf1 in rats to provide direct evidence of a causal relationship between neurofibromin, the protein product of the Nf1 gene, and pain responses. Our study data identified a protein-interaction network with collapsin response meditator protein 2 (CRMP2) as a node and neurofibromin, syntaxin 1A, and the N-type voltage-gated calcium (CaV2.2) channel as interaction edges. Neurofibromin uncouples CRMP2 from syntaxin 1A. Upon loss/mutation of neurofibromin, as seen in patients with NF1, the CRMP2/Neurofibromin interaction is uncoupled, which frees CRMP2 to interact with both syntaxin 1A and CaV2.2, culminating in increased release of the pro-nociceptive neurotransmitter calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). Our work also identified the CRMP2-derived peptide CNRP1, which uncoupled CRMP2's interactions with neurofibromin, syntaxin 1A, as well as CaV2.2. Here, we tested if CRISPR/Cas9-mediated editing of the Nf1 gene, which leads to functional remodeling of peripheral nociceptors through effects on the tetrodotoxin-sensitive (TTX-S) Na
