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

objectiveTo determine the frequency of mutations in exon 11 of the c-kit gene in patients with leukemia. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe study included 50 leukemia patients (31 with acute myeloid leukemia, 5 with acutelymphoblastic leukemia, 9 with chronic myeloid leukemia, and 5 with chronic lymphocytic leukemia) that underwentPCR-SSCP, followed by direct DNA sequencing.

resultsIn all, 28 of the leukemia patients were male and 22 were female, with a mean age of 31.88 years (range: 2-65years). In total, 20 mutations in 19 patients were identified, including Lys550Asn, Tyr568Ser, Ile571Thr, Thr574Pro,Gln575His, Tyr578Pro, Asp579His, His580Gln, Arg586Thr, Asn587Asp, and Arg588Met, as well as novel point mutationsat codons Ile563Lys, Val569Leu, Tyr570Ser, and Pro577Ser. Ile571Leu substitution was observed in 2 patients andTrp582Ser substitution was observed in 3 patients.

conclusionThe results suggest that mutations in exon 11 of the c-kit gene might be useful as molecular geneticmarkers for leukemia.
