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

Deregulation of the microRNA miR124a by DNA methylation has been implicated in various malignancies, but no study reported its methylation status in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). We evaluated the methylation of the three loci encoding for miR124a using methylation-specific PCR in 64 HL patients and 15 reactive lymph nodes obtained from patients with nonmalignant diseases. Results were correlated with clinicopathological parameters. Methylation rates of miR124a-1, miR124a-2, and miR124a-3 in HL were 17, 50, and 28%, respectively. None of the nontumoral samples showed aberrant hypermethylation in any of the miR tested. In HL cases, we found that miR124a-1 methylation correlates with high-risk International Prognostic Score (IPS) (score >3, p = 0.04) and that miR124a-2 methylation was more frequent in children (82.3%, p = 0.006) and men (63.9%, p = 0.01). Methylation of miR124a-3 was associated with advanced Ann-Arbor stages (p = 0.007). The survival analysis showed that methylation of at least one of the miR124a genes was associated with shortened event-free survival in univariate (p = 0.03) and multivariate (p = 0.02) analyses. These results suggest that miR124a methylation is associated with aggressive HL disease and may be an interesting factor for predicting treatment response.
