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

We previously performed a systematic analysis of free ceramide (Cers) species, the constituent ceramide species of sphingomyelins and neutral glycosphingolipids (NGSLs) using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry with high-energy collision-induced dissociation. As a result, distinct species differences were found among Cers, sphingomyelins and NGSLs in the kidneys. Using this method, we investigated various sphingolipid species from human colon cancer Caco-2 cells as well as the influence of environmental oxygen on these species in detail. Unexpectedly, even in normoxia, all Cers species were composed of dihydrosphingosine (d18:0) and non-hydroxy fatty acid (NFA), and 34% of sphingomyelins were composed of dihydrosphingomyelins with NFA. In contrast, major constituent ceramide species of NGSLs were composed of the usual long-chain base of sphingosine (d18:1) and hydroxy fatty acid (HFA). When the cells were cultured under hypoxic condition for 3 days, all the Cers and nearly 80% of the sphingomyelins were dihydrosphingolipids composed of d18:0-NFAs, but a significant proportion of d18:1-HFAs still remained in the NGSLs. When the cells were transferred from conditions of hypoxia to normoxia again (reoxygenation), Cer species composed of d18:1-NFAs, which were not found in Cers under the original normoxic conditions, appeared. Such Cers were probably synthesized as precursors for the constituent ceramides of sphingomyelins and NGSLs.
