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

Failure of myeloma cells to undergo apoptosis plays an important role in the accumulation of myeloma cells within the bone marrow (BM). Moreover, inhibition of drug-induced apoptosis has been indicated as a major contributor of drug resistance in myeloma. The BM microenvironment promotes survival and blocks the apoptotic effects of various cytotoxic agents through the production of cytokines as well as through direct physical interactions. Several antiapoptotic proteins and antiapoptotic signaling cascades have been identified that contribute to the antiapoptotic phenotype of the myeloma cell. In this review, we discuss mechanisms that result in enhanced survival and drug resistance of myeloma cells. Insight into these mechanisms is essential to make progress in the therapy of myeloma.
