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

backgroundTooth movement induced orofacial pain is the most cited negative effect during orthodontic treatment, while treatment options without side effects are limited. The differential expression of pain-related genes due to DNA methylation and demethylation is instrumental in pain. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the DNA methylation profiling of CpG islands (CGI) and CGI shores in promoter regions in trigeminal ganglions (TG) of tooth movement induced orofacial pain rats, thus to further insight the DNA methylation regulation in orofacial pain. MATERIALS AND

methodsAn orofacial pain rat model was constructed by ligating coil springs between the incisor and first maxillary molar with 40 g of force. The Rat Grimace Score (RGS) was used for pain evaluation. The genome methylation status was analyzed by the reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) technique. Gene ontology (GO) and kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) analyses were conducted in the differentially methylated regions (DMRs). Moreover, a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was established to detect annotated genes associated with pain.

resultsRGS was significantly higher in orofacial pain rats than in sham rats. RRBS showed widespread methylation changes in CGI and CGI shores in TG promoter regions. Both 902 hypermethylated DMRs and 862 hypomethylated DMRs were found in the CGIs of promoter regions. KEGG analysis revealed that annotated genes are participated in endocrine, nervous, immune, and sensory systems. Moreover, the "Calcium signaling pathway", "Wnt signaling pathway" and "Neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction" were significantly enriched pathways. Furthermore, PPI network showed several genes (Ctnnb1, Dlg4, Creb1, Camk2g, Bmp2, etc.) with different methylation statuses were reported to be associated with pain.

conclusionsThis study demonstrated methylation changes were existed in CGI and CGI shores in TG promoter regions when pain occurs, thus providing a basis for further study on the mechanism of DNA methylation in orofacial pain.
