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

Sphingosine kinase-1 (SphK1) catalyses the phosphorylation of sphingosine to sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), which acts on at least five specific G-protein-coupled receptors and also intracellularly. SphK1 has been implicated in cell proliferation, cancer growth, chemoresistance, immune cell functions and cell migration. In this issue of the British Journal of Pharmacology, Klawitter et al. demonstrate that extracellular nucleotides stimulate the migration of renal mesangial cells. The nucleotides furthermore upregulated SphK1 expression and activity, and this enzyme was required for nucleotide-induced migration. Together with previous findings, these data raise exciting questions: by which mechanism does SphK1 regulate migration in mesangial cells, how is the interplay of purinoceptors and S1P receptors organized in these cells, and how would SphK1-deficient mice respond to kidney damage?
