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

Primary sensory neurons of the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) express mu-type opioid receptors and undergo plasticity that can contribute to both analgesia and maladaptive outcomes such as opioid tolerance and opioid-induced hyperalgesia. Most mechanistic work has relied on rodent models, which may not fully capture the repertoire of opioid-responsive pathways present in humans. In this study, we tested whether morphine exposure reshapes gene expression programs in human nociceptors. Human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived nociceptors were exposed to morphine (3.5 μM) acutely (1h, 16h) or repeatedly (2-3 days; daily 16h exposure separated by 8h washout) and profiled by time-series RNA sequencing. The transcriptional response to morphine included the induction of a small set of genes across exposure paradigms.
