Ceramide microdomains: the major influencers of the sphingolipid media platform.
Review in Biochemical Society transactions, 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
Like 'influencers' who achieve fame and power through social media, ceramides are low abundance members of communication platforms that have a mighty impact on their surroundings. Ceramide microdomains form within sphingolipid-laden lipid rafts that confer detergent resistance to cell membranes and serve as important signaling hubs. In cells exposed to excessive amounts of saturated fatty acids (e.g. in obesity), the abundance of ceramide-rich microdomains within these rafts increases, leading to concomitant alterations in cellular metabolism and survival that contribute to cardiometabolic disease. In this mini-review, we discuss the evidence supporting the formation of these ceramide microdomains and describe the spectrum of harmful ceramide-driven metabolic actions under the context of an evolutionary theory. Moreover, we discuss the proximal 'followers' of these ceramide media stars that account for the diverse intracellular actions that allow them to influence obesity-linked disease.
