Is Sphingosine Kinase 1 Associated with Hematological Malignancy? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Synthesis in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
backgroundSphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) is a lipid enzyme whose role in the etiology of cancer has been well explored. Here, a systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to evaluate the association of SphK1 expression with hematological malignancy. MATERIALS AND
methodsRelevant studies were identified through electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and OVID) and evaluated based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Quality assessment using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) was conducted, and pooled odds ratio (OR) was calculated to assess the association between SphK1 expression and hematological malignancy.
resultsNine studies meeting the inclusion criteria were included in the systematic review. These studies utilized various techniques to assess SphK1 expression in hematological malignancies. The quality assessment reported that the included studies were of moderate quality. Meta-analysis of eligible studies revealed a positive association between SphK1 expression and hematological malignancies at the protein level (OR = 52.37, 95% CI = 10.10 to 271.47, and P = 0.00001). The funnel plot indicated no publication bias among the included studies. However, the certainty of the evidence was low according to the GRADE assessment.
conclusionOur study's findings support the link between SphK1 expression and hematological malignancies. SphK1 gene dysregulation may contribute to various malignancies, suggesting it could be a therapeutic target to improve patient outcomes. Further research is needed to understand SphK1's mechanistic role in hematological malignancies and its therapeutic potential.
