Activities of genes controlling sphingolipid metabolism in human fibroblasts treated with flavonoids.
Article in Metabolic brain disease, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Natural flavonoids such as genistein, kaempferol and daidzein were previously found to be able to reduce efficiency of glycosaminoglycan synthesis in cells of patients suffering from mucopolysaccharidoses, inherited metabolic diseases with often brain disease symptoms. This feature was employed to test these compounds as potential drugs for treatment other neuronopathic lysosomal storage disorders, in which errors in sphingolipid metabolism occur. In this report, on the basis of DNA microarray analyses and quantitative real time PCR experiments, we present evidence that these compounds modify expression of genes coding for enzymes required for metabolism of sphingolipids in human dermal fibroblasts (HDFa). Expression of several genes involved in sphingolipid synthesis was impaired by tested flavonoids. Therefore, it is tempting to speculate that they may be considered as potential drugs in treatment of LSD, in which accumulation of sphingolipids, especially glycosphingolipids, occurs. Nevertheless, further studies on more advances models are required to test this hypothesis and to assess a therapeutic potential for flavonoids in this group of metabolic brain diseases.
