Genetic modulation of pain pathways: toward a new era in pain therapy- a systematic review.
Synthesis in Molecular biology reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Gene therapy represents a new strategy in pain management targeting the causes of pain rather than its symptoms. This review summarizes recent advances across RNA interference (RNAi), viral vector delivery systems, CRISPR/Cas9, gene replacement therapy, and endogenous opioid gene delivery, emphasizing efficacy, safety, and mechanisms of action in pain conditions. RNAi and gene replacement techniques remain powerful tools for reducing pain and improving the quality of life by modulating pain-associated genes. Long-term relief may also be achieved with CRISPR/Cas9 and site-directed delivery using nanoparticle systems. Safety profiles especially with CRISPR/Cas9 remains a concern. A systematic search of Web of Science, Medline, Scopus, and Google Scholar identified 512 records (January 2010-March 2023). Following PRISMA screening, 18 studies met inclusion criteria. These studies evaluated strategies of gene therapy in neuropathy, arthritis, fibromyalgia, and complex regional pain syndrome. The review outlines available options and highlights preclinical findings.
