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

The retinoic acid receptor alpha gene is the target of chromosomal rearrangements in all cases of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). This recurrent involvement of RARalpha in the pathogenesis of APL is likely to reflect an important role played by this receptor during the differentiation of immature myeloid cells to neutrophils. RARalpha is a negative regulator of promyelocyte differentiation when not complexed with RA, and stimulates this differentiation when bound to RA. Since RARs are dispensable for the generation of mature neutrophils, their role thus appears to be to modulatory, rather than obligatory, for the control of neutrophil differentiation. In vitro, retinoic acid is also a potent inducer of neutrophil cell fate, suggesting that it might play a role in the commitment of pluripotent hematopoietic progenitors to the neutrophil lineage. Thus, the APL translocations target an important regulator of myeloid cell differentiation.
