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

Ceramide functions as an important second messenger in apoptosis signaling pathways. In this report, we show that treatment of NT-2 neuronal precursor cells with hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) resulted in ceramide up-regulation. This elevation in ceramide was primarily due to the actions of acid sphingomyelinase and ceramide synthase LASS 5, demonstrating the action of the salvage pathway. Hypoxia/reoxygenation treatment led to Bax translocation from the cytoplasm to mitochondria and cytochrome c release from mitochondria. Down-regulation of either acid sphingomyelinase or LASS 5-attenuated ceramide accumulation and H/R-induced Bax translocation to mitochondria. Overall, we have demonstrated that ceramide up-regulation following H/R is pertinent to Bax activation to promote cell death.
