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

Gfi1b is a transcriptional repressor that is essential for erythroid cells and megakaryocytes, but is also expressed in hematopoietic stem cells and early myeloid progenitors. The chromosomal localization of the Gfi1b gene at 9q34 and its functional homology with the proto-oncogene Gfi1 were suggestive for a role of Gfi1b in malignant transformation and myeloid leukemia. We show here that the expression of Gfi1b is strongly elevated in CML and AML patients compared to normal healthy controls and that imatinib, a drug widely used to treat CML, further enhances Gfi1b expression in patients even after remission. Our data suggest that Gfi1b may be an important factor to establish or maintain myeloid leukemia and myeloproliferative diseases and that, high expression levels of Gfi1b might be associated with the emergence of Philadelphia chromosome negative myeloid malignancies after imatinib withdrawal or after the development of imatinib resistance.
