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

Ceramide-1-phosphate is a minor sphingolipid with important functions in cell signaling. In this study, we examined the propensity of palmitoyl ceramide-1-phosphate (Cer-1P) to segregate laterally into ordered domains in different bilayer compositions at 23 and 37°C and compared this with segregation of palmitoyl ceramide (PCer) and palmitoyl sphingomyelin (PSM). The ordered-domain formation in the fluid phosphatidylcholine bilayers was determined using the emission lifetime changes of trans-parinaric acid and from differential scanning calorimetry thermograms. The lateral segregation of Cer-1P was examined when hydrated to bilayers in Tris buffer (50 mM Tris, 140 mM NaCl (pH 7.4)). At this pH, Cer-1P was negatively charged. The lateral segregation propensity of Cer-1P in 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC) bilayers was intermediate between PCer and PSM. Based on differential scanning calorimetry analysis, we observed that the gel domains formed by Cer-1P in POPC bilayers (POPC:Cer-1P 70:30 by mol) were less stable (melting interval 16-37°C) than the corresponding POPC and PCer gel domains at equal composition (melting interval 20-55°C). The gel-phase melting enthalpy was also much lower in Cer-1P (1.5 kcal/mol) than in the PCer-containing POPC bilayers (9 kcal/mol). Cer-1P appeared to be at least partially miscible with PCer domains in POPC bilayers. Cer-1P domains were stabilized in the presence of PSM (POPC:PSM 85:15), similarly as seen with PCer-rich domains. In bilayers at 37°C, with an approximate outer-leaflet cell membrane composition (sphingomyelin and cholesterol enriched, aminophospholipid poor), Cer-1P segregation did not lead to the formation of ordered domains, at least when compared with PCer segregation. In bilayers with an approximate inner-leaflet composition (sphingomyelin poor, cholesterol and aminophospholipid enriched), Cer-1P also failed to form ordered domains. PCer segregated into ordered domains only after the PCer/cholesterol ratio exceeded an approximate equimolar ratio.
