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

backgroundThe neuropeptides calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and substance P are important mediators of neurogenic inflammation when they are released from activated primary nociceptive afferents. It is long evident that neuropeptides play an important role in migraine pathophysiology, but the significance of neurogenic inflammation is still debated.

methodsIn an approved hemisected rodent head preparation, we measured CGRP release from the cranial dura mater in parallel with substance P release using animals pre-treated with anti-CGRP antibodies or control solutions.

resultsApart from the known decrease in CGRP release following antibody treatment, we found a significant inverse correlation of basal and stimulated CGRP versus substance P release across all experiments. The results are discussed in connection with our previously published data.

conclusionsAn increase in CGRP release seems to inhibit substance P release in meningeal structures possibly decreasing substance P-dependent plasma extravasation, which argues against a significant role of neurogenic inflammation in migraine.
