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

Acute myeloid leukemia carrying cytoplasmic mutated nucleophosmin (NPMc(+) AML) and blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm have been included as new entities in the 4(th) edition (2008) WHO classification of myeloid neoplasms. These conditions may show clinical and pathological overlapping features (leukemic and skin involvement, and expression of macrophage markers). In this study, we provide evidence that aberrant cytoplasmic dislocation of nucleophosmin - the immunohistochemical surrogate for NPM1 mutations - allows the two entities to be genetically separated. In fact, nucleophosmin is consistently cytoplasmic in NPMc(+) AML (because of the presence of NPM1 mutations), whilst it is nucleus-restricted (predictive of a germline NPM1 gene) in blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm. Our results clearly point cytoplasmic nucleophosmin (a full predictor of NPM1 mutations) as a new marker for distinguishing NPMc(+) AML and blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm, further clarify the cell of origin of NPMc(+) AML, and justify the inclusion of these pathological conditions as separate entities in the new WHO classification.
