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

Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) has a substantial impact on human health and is a major monetary burden on the drug development process. Presently, there is a lack of robust and analytically validated markers for predicting and early diagnosis of DILI. Sphingolipid metabolism and subsequent disruption of sphingolipid homeostasis has been documented to play a key role contributing to hepatocellular death and subsequent liver injury. A more comprehensive understanding of sphingolipid metabolism in response to liver toxicity has great potential to gain mechanistic insight into hepatotoxicity and define molecular markers that are responsible for hepatocyte dysfunction. Here, we present an analytical platform that provides multidimensional mass spectrometry-based datasets for comprehensive structure characterization of sphingolipids extracted from human primary hepatocytes (HPH) exposed to toxic levels of acetaminophen (APAP). Sphingolipid metabolism as measured by characterization of individual sphingolipid structure was sensitive to APAP toxicity displaying a concentration-dependent response. A number of sphingolipid structures were differentially expressed across varying APAP exposures highlighting the unique role sphingolipid metabolism has in response to hepatotoxicity and its potential use as a molecular marker in DILI.
