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

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) have a unique capacity to undergo self-renewal and multi-lineage differentiation to provide a lifetime supply of mature blood cells. By using conditional knockout technology, we disrupted the c-myb proto-oncogene specifically in adult bone marrow (BM) to demonstrate that this transcription factor is a regulator of self-renewal and multi-lineage differentiation of adult HSCs. Targeted disruption of the c-myb gene resulted in a critical depletion of the HSC pool. In addition, BM hematopoiesis in adult mice was impaired, resulting in profound reductions of various hematopoietic lineages including neutrophilic, monocytic, B lymphoid, erythroid, and, unexpectedly, megakaryocytic cells. Serial BM transplantation into lethally irradiated recipient mice indicated an essential role for c-myb in the self-renewal process. Furthermore, in vitro functional assays demonstrated that deletion of the c-myb gene leads to a slightly reduced proliferative capacity and an aberrant and accelerated differentiation of HSCs. In addition to long-term HSCs, functional studies also show that c-myb plays a critical role in short-term HSCs and multi-potential progenitors. Collectively, our data indicate a critical role for c-myb in adult BM hematopoiesis and in self-renewal and multi-lineage differentiation of adult HSCs.
