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

t(17;19)-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) shows extremely poor prognosis. E2A-HLF derived from t(17;19) blocks apoptosis induced by the intrinsic mitochondrial pathway and has a central role in leukemogenesis and chemoresistance. Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is expressed on cytotoxic T cells and natural killer cells and binds with death receptors (DR4/DR5), inducing apoptosis by dual activation of intrinsic and extrinsic pathways, and TRAIL mediates the graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT). We found that cell lines and patients' samples of t(17;19)-ALL expressed death receptors for TRAIL, and recombinant soluble TRAIL immediately induced apoptosis into t(17;19)-ALL cell lines. E2A-HLF induced gene expression of DR4/DR5, which was dependent on the DNA-binding and transactivation activities of E2A-HLF through the 5' upstream region of the start site at least in the DR4 gene. Introduction of E2A-HLF into non-t(17;19)-ALL cell line upregulated DR4 and DR5 expression, and sensitized to proapoptotic activity of recombinant soluble TRAIL. Finally, a newly diagnosed t(17;19)-ALL patient underwent allo-SCT immediately after induction of first complete remission, and the patient has survived without relapse for over 3-1/2 years after allo-SCT. These findings suggest that E2A-HLF sensitizes t(17;19)-ALL to the GVL effect by upregulating death receptors for TRAIL.
