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

Peripheral inflammation is known to enhance pain sensitivity through nociceptive pathways, but its impact on large-diameter myelinated fibers, which mediate touch and proprioception, is less understood. Here, we examined the temporal dynamics of large fiber (Aα/β) excitability in a mouse model of Complete Freund's Adjuvant (CFA)-induced hind paw inflammation, integrating behavioral, electrophysiological, proteomic, and immune analyses. CFA induced a biphasic modulation of large fiber function, with early hypoexcitability on day 1 followed by hyperexcitability on day 7, temporally aligned with thermal hypersensitivity. Proteomic analysis of sciatic nerve tissue on day 7 revealed upregulation of immune-related proteins, including CD45, providing proteomic evidence of local nerve inflammation. Systemic cytokines and paw skin thrombin activity showed transient elevations at early time points. In vitro, lipopolysaccharide-stimulated Schwannoma-derived cells modulated thrombin activity and altered expression of complement- and inflammation-associated genes. These findings demonstrate that peripheral inflammation dynamically modulates large fiber excitability alongside intrinsic neural and systemic immune responses, highlighting the importance of considering multi-level neuro-immune interactions in models of peripheral nerve function.
