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

Glucocorticoids are a class of steroid hormones commonly used for the treatment of hematological malignancies due to their ability to induce apoptosis in lymphoid cells. An understanding of the critical steps in glucocorticoid-induced apoptosis is required to identify sources of drug resistance. Previously, we found that an increase in hydrogen peroxide is a necessary signal for glucocorticoid-induced apoptosis. In the current study, we found that mitochondria are the source of the signal. Glucocorticoid treatment inhibited Complex I and Complex III of the electron transport chain (ETC). Mitochondrial matrix reactive oxygen species (ROS) increased concomitantly with the oxidation of the mitochondrial glutathione pool. Treatment with Tiron, a superoxide scavenger, inhibited the signal. This suggests that the hydrogen peroxide signal originates as superoxide from the mitochondria and is metabolized to hydrogen peroxide. An inability to generate mitochondrial oxidants in response to glucocorticoids could cause drug resistance.
