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

MicroRNA (miRNA) expression is deregulated in many tumors including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Although the particular mechanism(s) responsible for their aberrant expression is not well characterized, the presence of mutations and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in miRNA genes, possibly affecting their secondary structure and expression, has been described. In CLL; however, the impact and frequency of such variations have yet to be elucidated. Using a custom resequencing microarray, we screened sequence variations in 109 cancer-related pre-miRNAs in 98 CLL patients. Additionally, the primary regions of miR-29b-2/29c and miR-16-1 were analyzed by Sanger sequencing in another cohort of 213 and 193 CLL patients, respectively. Altogether, we describe six novel miR-sequence variations and the presence of SNPs (n = 27), most of which changed the miR-secondary structure. Moreover, some of the identified SNPs have a significantly different frequency in CLL when compared with a control population. Additionally, we identified a novel variation in miR-16-1 that had not been described previously in CLL patients. We show that this variation affects the expression of mature miR-16-1. We also show that the expression of another miRNA with pathogenetic relevance for CLL, namely miR-29b-2, is influenced by the presence of a polymorphic insertion, which is more frequent in CLL than in a control population. Altogether, these data suggest that sequence variations may occur during CLL development and/or progression.
