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

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a severe stroke subtype with high mortality and limited therapeutic options. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) breakdown post-ICH exacerbates secondary brain injury, highlighting the need for targeted therapies to preserve the BBB integrity. We aim to investigate the role of the Sphk1/S1P pathway in BBB breakdown following ICH and to evaluate the therapeutic potential of Sphk1 inhibition in mitigating this breakdown. Using a combination of human patient samples, mouse models of ICH, and in vitro cellular assays, we assessed the expression levels of Sphk1/S1P after ICH and changes of the BBB after ICH. The Sphk1 inhibitor PF543 and siRNAs were utilized to explore the pathway's impact on BBB integrity and the underlying mechanisms. The results indicate significant upregulation of Sphk1/S1P in the peri-hematomal brain tissue after ICH, which correlates with increased BBB leakage. Pharmacological inhibition of Sphk1 with PF543 attenuates BBB leakage, reduces hematoma volume, and improves neurological outcomes in mice. At the molecular and ultrastructural level, Sphk1 inhibition protects the BBB integrity by preserving tight junction proteins and suppressing endothelial transcytosis. Furthermore, mechanistic studies reveal that Sphk1 promotes Nlrp3-mediated pyroptosis of brain endothelial cells through the ERK1/2 signaling pathway. Taken together, the Sphk1/S1P pathway plays a critical role in ICH-induced BBB breakdown, and its inhibition represents a promising therapeutic strategy for ICH management.
