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

Among clinicians, initial awareness of the Wilms' tumor gene was limited mostly to pediatric oncologists. Almost a decade ago, overexpression of Wilms' tumor 1 (WT1) was observed in adult acute leukemia. Subsequent studies indicated that WT1 overexpression occurs in most cases of acute myelogenous leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Limited tissue expression of WT1 in adults suggests that WT1 can be a target for leukemia/MDS therapy. WT1 expression in stem/progenitor cells remains unsettled. However, lack of progenitor cell suppression by WT1 antisense or WT1-specific cytotoxic T cells provide some assurance that WT1 expression in progenitor cells is minimal or absent. Immunotherapy-based WT1 approaches are furthest along in preclinical development. WT1-specific cytotoxic lymphocytes can be generated from normals and leukemic patients. In mice, WT1 vaccines elicit specific immune responses without evidence of tissue damage. In this paper, we review studies validating the immunogenicity of WT1 and propose that leukemia and MDS may be a good clinical model to test the efficacy of a WT1 vaccine.
