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
Sphingomyelinases (SMases) hydrolyze membrane sphingomyelin to ceramide and are expressed by diverse host and microbial cell types populating mucosal surfaces. Exogenous bacterial SMase acts on the basolateral membrane of polarized human intestinal epithelial cells to repress the cAMP-induced Cl(-) secretory response, but how this occurs is unknown. We show here that SMase acts by down-regulating a cAMP-gated basolateral membrane K(+) conductance. Neither phosphocholine, ceramide-1-phosphate, nor sphingosine-1-phosphate recapitulates this effect, indicating that ceramide production is the decisive factor. Basolaterally applied SMase induced the phosphorylation of c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK), and inhibition of JNK rescued the effect of SMase on cAMP-dependant secretion. SMase secreted by normal human fibroblasts specifically recapitulated the effect on cAMP-induced Cl(-) secretion, indicating that cell types inhabiting the subepithelial space can provide such an activity to the basolateral membrane of intestinal enterocytes in trans. Thus, conversion of sphingomyelin to ceramide in basolateral membranes of intestinal cells rapidly activates JNK to inhibit a cAMP-gated K(+) conductance and thereby attenuates Cl(-) secretion. These results define a novel lipid-mediated pathway for regulation of salt and water homeostasis at mucosal surfaces.
