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, serve as central mediators in sphingolipid metabolism and signaling pathways. They function in signaling events which induce apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, and autophagic responses. In cancer cells, ceramide levels are often suppressed by the up-regulation of ceramide-metabolizing enzymes or the down-regulation of ceramide-generating enzymes, resulting in increased cancer cell survival. Chemotherapeutic drugs and radiation therapy have been shown to increase intracellular ceramide levels leading to anti-cancer effects. Anti-cancer effects have also been seen in cancer cells with the use of exogenous short-chain ceramides. Our laboratory has synthesized a library of ceramide analogs and tested their effects on breast cancer cell lines. Analog 315 has been shown to be the most effective ceramide analog in our library. Here, we are reporting a large-scale synthesis of that analog is reported.
