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

Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are clonal diseases of the elderly characterized by chronic cytopenias, dysplasia and a variable risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Aberrant methylation of tumor-suppressor gene promoters has been established for many years and recently tracked to the most immature cells of MDS, suggesting that these alterations are drivers of MDS pathogenesis. In recent years, recurrent somatic mutations in genes encoding proteins involved in DNA methylation and demethylation and in covalent histone modifications have been reported in myeloid malignancies, including MDS. Whole-genome epigenetic profiles of MDS are also emerging. In parallel with these advances in the molecular pathogenesis of MDS, clinical trials have established hypomethylating agents (HMAs) as the mainstay of therapy in the advanced forms of the disease. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of the molecular machinery involved in epigenetic regulation, discuss how epigenetic alterations arise in MDS and contribute to its pathogenesis and then discuss the mode of action of HMAs in MDS.
