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

Dysregulation of apoptosis is a distinctive feature of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), although a unique mechanism underlying apoptosis resistance of CLL B lymphocytes has not been identified yet. Aberrant expression as well as genetic and epigenetic alterations of numerous genes involved in different pathways of apoptosis regulation has been described in CLL. Here, we report the expression analysis of Bcl2L12 (Bcl2-like 12), a novel apoptotic gene belonging to Bcl2 family, in 58 Serbian CLL patients. Quantitative reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) analysis revealed a significant overexpression of Bcl2L12 mRNA in CLL samples compared to non-leukemic samples, implying its role in the pathogenesis of the disease. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis showed that Bcl2L12 expression efficiently discriminates CLL cases from healthy controls. However, relatively homogenous Bcl2L12 mRNA expression among patients did not reflect their clinical characteristics (with the exception of lactate dehydrogenase status and time from diagnosis to treatment) and failed to show association with the most informative prognostic markers, namely the mutational status of rearranged immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region genes, CD38 and lipoprotein lipase gene (LPL) expression.
