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

Ceramides, important players in signal transduction, interact with multiple cellular pathways, including p53 pathways. However, the relationship between ceramide and p53 is very complex, and mechanisms underlying their coregulation are diverse and not fully characterized. The role of p53, an important cellular regulator and a transcription factor, is linked to its tumor suppressor function. Ceramides are involved in the regulation of fundamental processes in cancer cells including cell death, proliferation, autophagy, and drug resistance. This regulation, however, can be pro-death or pro-survival depending on cancer type, the balance between ceramide species, the rate of their synthesis and utilization, and the availability of a specific array of downstream targets. This chapter highlights the central role of ceramide in sphingolipid metabolism, its role in cancer, specific effectors in ceramide pathways controlled by p53, and coregulation of ceramide and p53 signaling. We discuss the recent studies, which underscore the function of p53 in the regulation of ceramide pathways and the reciprocal regulation of p53 by ceramide. This complex relationship is based on several molecular mechanisms including the p53-dependent transcriptional regulation of enzymes in sphingolipid pathways, the activation of mutant p53 through ceramide-mediated alternative splicing, as well as modulation of the p53 function through direct and indirect effects on p53 coregulators and downstream targets. Further insight into the connections between ceramide and p53 will allow simultaneous targeting of the two pathways with a potential to yield more efficient anticancer therapeutics.
