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

Neuropathic pain (NP) is a common symptom in many diseases of the somatosensory nervous system, which severely affects the patient's quality of life. Epigenetics are heritable alterations in gene expression that do not cause permanent changes in the DNA sequence. Epigenetic modifications can affect gene expression and function and can also mediate crosstalk between genes and the environment. Increasing evidence shows that epigenetic modifications, including DNA methylation, histone modification, non-coding RNA, and RNA modification, are involved in the development and maintenance of NP. In this review, we focus on the current knowledge of epigenetic modifications in the development and maintenance of NP. Then, we illustrate different facets of epigenetic modifications that regulate gene expression and their crosstalk. Finally, we discuss the burgeoning evidence supporting the potential of emerging epigenetic therapies, which has been valuable in understanding mechanisms and offers novel and potent targets for NP therapy.
