Plasma Sphingolipid Profile of Healthy Black and White Adults Differs Based on Their Parental History of Type 2 Diabetes.
Article in The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
contextCeramides and sphingolipids have been linked to type 2 diabetes (T2D). The Ceramides and Sphingolipids as Predictors of Incident Dysglycemia (CASPID) study is designed to determine the association of plasma sphingolipids with the pathophysiology of human T2D.
objectiveA comparison of plasma sphingolipids profiles in Black and White adults with (FH+) and without (FH-) family history of T2D.
designWe recruited 100 Black and White FH- (54 Black, 46 White) and 140 FH+ (75 Black, 65 White) adults. Fasting plasma levels of 58 sphingolipid species, including 18 each from 3 major classes (ceramides, monohexosylceramides, and sphingomyelins, all with 18:1 sphingoid base) and 4 long-chain sphingoid base-containing species, were measured by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry.
resultsSphingomyelin was the most abundant sphingolipid in plasma (89% in FH-), and was significantly elevated in FH+ subjects (93%). Ceramides and monohexosylceramides comprised 5% and 6% of total sphingolipids in the plasma of FH- subjects, and were reduced significantly in FH+ subjects (3% and 4%, respectively). In FH+ subjects, most ceramide and monohexosylceramide species were decreased but sphingomyelin species were increased. The level of C18:1 species of all 3 classes was elevated in FH+ subjects.
conclusionElevated levels of sphingomyelin, the major sphingolipids of plasma, and oleic acid-containing sphingolipids in healthy FH+ subjects compared with healthy FH- subjects may reflect heritable elements linking sphingolipids and the development of T2D.
