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

Proviral insertions at the viral insertion site Lvis1 occur frequently in B- and T-cell leukemias and lymphomas in AKXD mice and activate two nearby genes, the divergent homeobox gene Hex and the kinesin-related spindle protein gene Eg5. To determine whether Hex misexpression results in the altered differentiation or neoplastic transformation of hematopoietic lineages, we have transplanted mice with bone marrow cells transduced with retrovirus containing the Hex coding region. High levels of Hex expression in hematopoietic precursor cells inhibit contribution to mature blood cell lineages by these precursors. Hex bone marrow transplant recipient mice also develop hematologic neoplasms that appear to originate in the bone marrow. The tumors have clonal rearrangements of the TCR locus, are Thy1+, and are CD4+CD8+, CD4-CD8-, or mixed, indicating tumor origin from a precursor T-cell population. Tumors in transplant mice contain clonal and transcriptionally active Hex proviral insertions, demonstrating a causal role for Hex misexpression in the onset of these neoplasms. Our results demonstrate that Hex can act as a T lineage oncogene when misexpressed in hematopoietic precursor cells.
