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

Recent studies have brought to light the necessity to discern sex-specific differences in various pain states and different cell-types that mediate these differences. These studies have uncovered the role of neuroimmune interactions to mediate pain states in a sex-specific fashion. While investigating immune function in pain development, we discovered that females utilize immune components of sensory neurons to mediate neuropathic pain development. We utilized two novel transgenic mouse models that eitherrestore expression of toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 inNa
