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

Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive cancer resistant to current therapies, including oxaliplatin (Oxa). Growing evidence supports the ability of cancers to harness sphingolipid metabolism for survival. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is an anti-apoptotic, pro-survival mediator that can influence cellular functions such as endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. We hypothesize that PDAC drives dysregulated sphingolipid metabolism and that S1P inhibition can enhance ER stress to improve therapeutic response to Oxa in PDAC. Methods: RNA sequencing data of sphingolipid mediators from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Genotype-Tissue Expression Project (GTEx) datasets were analyzed. Murine and human PDAC cell lines were treated with small interfering RNA (siRNA) against sphingosine kinase-2 (SPHK2) or ABC294640 (ABC) and incubated with combinations of vehicle control or Oxa. In an orthotopic syngeneic KPC PDAC model, tumors were treated with either vehicle control, Oxa, ABC, or combination therapy. Results: RNA sequencing analysis revealed multiple significantly differentially expressed sphingolipid mediators (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Our evidence suggests that sphingolipid metabolism is dysregulated in PDAC. Furthermore, S1P inhibition can sensitize PDAC to Oxa therapy through increasing ER stress and can potentiate ICD induction. This highlights a potential therapeutic target for chemosensitizing PDAC as well as an adjunct for future chemoimmunotherapy strategies.
