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

The enzyme sphingosine kinase-1 (SK1) promotes the formation of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), which is an important survival factor for endothelial cells (EC). Modest increases in intracellular SK1 activity in the EC are known to confer a survival advantage upon the cells. Here, we investigated the effects of more dramatic increases in intracellular SK1 in the EC. We found that these cells show reduced cell survival under conditions of stress, enhanced caspase-3 activity, cell cycle inhibition, and cell-cell junction disruption. We propose that alterations in the phosphorylation state of the enzyme may explain the differential effects on the phenotype with modest versus high levels of enforced expression of SK1. Our results suggest that SK1 activity is subject to control in the EC, and that this control may be lost in conditions involving vascular regression.
