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

Capsaicin, the chili-pungent compound, has a peculiar chemical structure that allows it to impact mammalian physiology. Besides its classical effects through activating the Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1), growing experimental evidence demonstrates that capsaicin has pleiotropic actions in a TRPV1-independent manner. These effects are achieved by modifying the membrane features or interacting with unclassical putative molecular targets. Here, we will summarize the representative information related to the capsaicin actions through unclassical and TRPV1-independent molecular mechanisms, and we will discuss the impact of these effects on non-neuronal cells and mammalian physiology.
