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

Musculoskeletal pain is a significant burden affecting billions of people with little progress in the development of pharmaceutical pain relief options. The mechanically-activated ion channel Piezo2 has been shown to play a role in mechanical sensitization; however there has been little progress in examining therapeutics that target this molecule. The goal of this study was to assess the effect of two FM-dyes, FM1-43 or FM4-64, in reducing acute inflammatory and osteoarthritis knee joint pain in mice of both sexes. In our acute model of Complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA)-induced joint pain, mice intra-articularly injected with FM1-43 exhibited an attenuation of knee hyperalgesia 90 minutes following injection.
