High expression of LMO2 predicts a favorable outcome in adult patients with BCR/ABL negative B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

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.
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
The LIM domain only protein 2 (LMO2) is a key regulator of hematopoietic stem cell development. Expression of LMO2 has been evaluated in B-cell lymphoma, T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and acute myeloid leukemia; however, information concerning its role in breakpoint cluster region/Abelson murine leukemia viral oncogene homolog 1 (BCR/ABL) negative B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) remains limited. The present study investigated LMO2 expression using quantitative polymerase chain reaction in 85 adult patients with BCR/ABL negative B-ALL, and associated the expression of LMO2 with established prognostic factors. LMO2 expression levels in patients with BCR/ABL negative B-ALL was not significantly different compared with control individuals (P=0.25). However, LMO2 expression levels were associated with the immunophenotypical features of the patients; a high LMO2 expression was associated with a higher incidence of complete remission (P=0.03) and lower rate of relapse (P=0.01), and patients with a high LMO2 expression had a significantly improved overall survival rate (P=0.01) and disease-free survival (P=0.01). The present results suggest that LMO2 expression is a favorable prognostic marker in adult patients with BCR/ABL negative B-ALL and may be used as a diagnostic marker and therapeutic target. However, additional studies regarding its prognostic role in patients with BCR/ABL negative B-ALL are required.
