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

Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCLs) form a heterogeneous group of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas characterized by only poor prognosis in advanced stage. Despite significant progress made in the identification of novel genes and pathways involved in the pathogenesis of cutaneous lymphoma, the therapeutic value of these findings has still to be proven. Here, we demonstrate by gene expression arrays that Aurora kinase A is one of the highly overexpressed genes of the serine/threonine kinase in CTCL. The finding was confirmed by quantitative reverse transcriptase-PCR, western blotting, and immunohistochemistry in CTCL cell lines and primary patient samples. Moreover, treatment with a specific Aurora kinase A inhibitor blocks cell proliferation by inducing cell cycle arrest in G2 phase, as well as apoptosis in CTCL cell lines. These data provide a promising rationale for using Aurora kinase A inhibition as a therapeutic modality of CTCL.
