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

Loss of major histocompatibility complex class II (MHCII) antigen expression on diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) corresponds closely with significant decreases in patient survival. However, the mechanisms accounting for MHCII loss in DLBCL have not been thoroughly characterized to date. In this report, we demonstrate that coordinate loss of MHCII expression in OCI-Ly2 DLBCL cells is associated with an 11-base deletion in the cDNA encoding RFX-AP, one of the subunits of the heterotrimeric regulatory factor X (RFX) that is required for activating MHCII transcription. This deletion results in a frameshift in the RFX-AP protein beginning at amino acid 234 and, therefore, in the loss of C-terminal amino acids that are required for function. Stable transfection of OCI-Ly2 DLBCL cells with an expression vector for wild-type RFX-AP restores MHCII expression, which strongly suggests that the defect in RFX-AP accounts for MHCII loss in these cells.
