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-1-phosphate (S1P), the corresponding kinases SphK1-2, and receptors S1P1-3 and S1P5 are involved in cell survival and growth. Pathway components are overexpressed in many tumors including glioblastoma. Previous studies showed that the expression of SphK1 influenced survival of glioblastoma patients, yet the roles of SphK1-2 and receptors S1P1-3 and S1P5 have not been investigated in different forms of glioblastoma. Samples from 59 patients (37 males, 22 females, age 55.1 ± 17.1 years) suffering from primary (n = 35), recurrent (n = 18), and secondary (n = 6) glioblastomas were analyzed using quantitative real-time PCR and immunohistochemistry for expression levels of SphK1 and SphK2 and S1P1-3 and S1P5. Sixteen autopsy nontumorous brain specimens were used as controls. Expression data was correlated with clinical data and patient survival. All markers were overexpressed in the glioblastoma specimens compared to the non-neoplastic brain tissue. SphK1 and all S1P receptors were expressed in increasing order of magnitude from primary, up to recurrent and secondary glioblastomas, with values of up to 44-fold compared to normal brain tissue. In contrast, SphK2 levels were highest in primary tumors (25-fold). Expression of the sphingosine signaling pathway components was influenced by radio/radiochemotherapy in distinct ways. Immunohistochemistry for SphK1 and S1P1 confirmed the overexpression in glioblastoma. Uni- and multivariate survival analyses identified S1P5 messenger RNA levels as an independent prognostic factor of survival. The sphingosine pathway is overexpressed in glioma. Its components show distinct expression patterns in the tumor subgroups. S1P5 is identified as an independent prognostic factor in multivariate analysis, and this pathway promises to be a candidate for targeted therapies.
