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

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) B-cells are hyporesponsive to many proliferative signals that induce activation of normal B-lymphocytes. However, a heterogeneous response has recently been observed with immunostimulatory CpG-oligodeoxynucleotides (CpG ODN). We now show that CpG ODN induce proliferation mainly in CLL B-cells from patients with progressive disease and unmutated immunoglobulin V(H) genes, whereas G(1)/S cell cycle arrest and apoptosis are induced in leukemic B-cells from stable/V(H) mutated CLL. Examination of early signaling events demonstrated that all CLL B-cells respond to CpG ODN stimulation by degradation of the NF-kappaB inhibitor IkappaB and activation of the Akt, ERK, JNK and p38 MAPK kinases, but the magnitude and duration of the signaling response was greater in the proliferating cases. Pharmacological inhibition of these pathways showed that simultaneous activation of Akt, ERK and JNK is required for cell cycle progression and proliferation. Conversely, introduction of constitutively active Akt in nonproliferating CLL B-cells resulted in induction of cyclin A following CpG ODN stimulation, indicating that increased Akt activation is sufficient to overcome the hyporesponsiveness of these cells to proliferative signals. Thus, the magnitude of Akt signaling may determine the distinct responses observed in leukemic B-cells belonging to the different prognostic subgroups.
