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

purposeThe present study aimed to investigate the role of expression of daunorubicin-metabolizing enzymes carbonyl reductase 1 and 3 (CBR1 and CBR3) on the in vitro cytotoxicity of daunorubicin in primary acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells and the effect of genetic variants in CBR1 and CBR3 on the plasma pharmacokinetics of daunorubicin and daunorubicinol (DOL) in AML patients.

methodsRNA expression of CBR1 and CBR3, intracellular daunorubicin and DOL levels, and in vitro cytotoxicity of daunorubicin were measured in bone marrow mononuclear cells of 104 adult AML patients. Plasma pharmacokinetics of daunorubicin and DOL was measured in 24 patients receiving daunorubicin-based induction chemotherapy for AML.

resultsIncreased expression of CBR1 significantly reduced the in vitro cytotoxicity of daunorubicin and also positively correlated with intracellular DOL levels. Polymorphisms in CBR1 and CBR3 did not show any association with intracellular daunorubicin or DOL levels, but there was a trend towards significant increase in plasma daunorubicin systemic exposure in patients with a variant genotype for CBR1 polymorphism rs25678.

conclusionsThis pilot study suggests that CBR1 RNA expression may be helpful in identifying AML patients at risk of developing resistance or toxicity to daunorubicin due to increased formation of DOL. Further confirmation of these findings in a larger sample pool would be required to determine the applicability of these results. Inhibition of CBR1 can be an option to improve the efficacy and prevent toxicity related to the treatment. Influence of daunorubicin and DOL plasma levels on clinical outcome, if any, remains to be evaluated.
