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

Leukemic blasts from patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) frequently express high levels of the interleukin-3 receptor alpha chain (IL-3Ralpha). In the present study, we have explored the sensitivity of primary leukemic blasts obtained from 34 patients with AML to a diphtheria toxin (DT) composed of the catalytic and translocation domains of DT (DT388) fused to IL-3 (DT388IL-3) and to DT388 fused to a variant IL-3 with increased binding affinity (DT388IL-3[K116W]). On a molar basis, DT388IL-3[K116W] was significantly more active than DT388IL-3 in mediating leukemic cell killing. The rate of cell killing induced by the 2 DT/IL-3 fusion proteins was significantly correlated with the level of IL-3Ralpha/IL-3Rbeta expressed on leukemic blasts. These observations support a potential use of DT388IL-3[K116W] in the treatment of refractory AMLs and provide a simple biochemical parameter for the selection of eligible patients.
