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

Mutations of the Ras family are one of the most common somatic events found in all human cancers, although they are relatively rare in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). In mice, conditional expression of oncogenic Kras(G12D) from its endogenous promoter causes a fatal myeloproliferative disorder, and only rarely a T-ALL-like disease. In the article being evaluated, the authors demonstrate that primary mice expressing oncogenic Kras have a block in T-cell differentiation at the double-negative 1 stage. Interestingly, most secondarily transplanted mice develop a fatal T-ALL-like disease. Sequencing of NOTCH-1 showed that 50% of these mice harbored truncating mutations in the PEST domain that would be predicted to activate Notch signaling. Cell lines established from some of the mice demonstrated sensitivity to γ-secretase inhibition, suggesting that even when NOTCH-1 mutations occur as secondary collaborating events, tumors retain a dependency on this pathway that might be exploitable clinically.
