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 kinases (SphKs), of which there are two isoforms, SphK1 and SphK2, have been implicated in regulation of many important cellular processes. We have developed an assay for monitoring SphK1 and SphK2 activity in real time without the need for organic partitioning of products, radioactive materials, or specialized equipment. The assay conveniently follows SphK-dependent changes in 7-nitro-2-1,3-benzoxadiazol-4-yl (NBD)-labeled sphingosine (Sph) fluorescence and can be easily performed in 384-well plate format with small reaction volumes. We present data showing dose-proportional responses to enzyme, substrate, and inhibitor concentrations. The SphK1 and SphK2 binding affinities for NBD-Sph and the IC50 values of inhibitors determined were consistent with those reported with other methods. Because of the versatility and simplicity of the assay, it should facilitate the routine characterization of inhibitors and SphK mutants and can be readily used for compound library screening in high-throughput format.
