Complement Receptor 3 Pathway and NMDA Receptor 2B Subunit Involve Neuropathic Pain Associated with Spinal Cord Injury.
Article in Journal of pain research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Background: Neuropathic pain (NP) after spinal cord injury (SCI-evoked NP) is clinically challenging; the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood, leading to a lack of promising treatment options. NP occurs in only a subset of patients with SCI. The injured spinal cord exhibits a series of histopathological changes, and the complement system has been shown to play an important role in these processes. In addition, NMDA receptor subunit 2B (NR2B) is involved in the development and maintenance of NP. This preliminary study was performed to investigate the correlations of the complement receptor 3/complement component 3 (CR3/C3) pathway and NR2B with SCI-evoked NP. Methods: A trauma-induced SCI animal model was established and SCI-evoked NP was evaluated by behavioural analysis. Transcriptome analysis was performed to identify genes in the CR3/C3 pathway related to synaptic modification, while the expression and distribution of NR2B in the injured spinal cord, and the relation to NP, were examined by immunohistochemical analysis. Results: Nine of seventeen SCI rats (52.9%) developed NP. Conclusion: NP occurred in only a subset of SCI rats, and the CR3/C3 pathway and NR2B were involved in SCI-evoked NP. Further studies are required to determine the mechanisms underlying the SCI-evoked NP associated with the CR3/C3 pathway and NR2B.
