Suppression of Post-Ischemic Cardiac Remodelling and Inflammatory Response by a Novel Sphingolipid Modifier, CIN038.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
In patients with myocardial infarction (MI), the level of sphingolipids, such as ceramide (Cer), is elevated and is associated with an increased risk of progression towards heart failure (HF). Dihydroceramide desaturase 1 (DES1) catalyses the conversion of dihydroceramide (dhCer) into Cer in the de novo sphingolipid pathway. While pharmacological inhibition of DES1 has shown therapeutic benefits in metabolic disease and cancer models, its role in cardiac remodelling remains unclear. This study aimed to determine whether pharmacological inhibition of DES1 using the novel compound, CIN038, attenuates cardiac remodelling following ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Three-month-old male C57Bl/6 mice underwent I/R or sham surgery (n = 8) and were treated with vehicle or CIN038 (50 mg/kg/day, i.p.) for 28 days. Cardiac function, molecular changes, and lipid profiles in circulation and liver were assessed at the endpoint. CIN038 reduced infarct size and cardiac myocyte hypertrophy compared to the I/R + vehicle group. Profibrotic signalling was reduced in the infarcted hearts, as evidenced by reduced expression of
