MicroRNA-155 in serum-derived extracellular vesicles as a potential biomarker for hematologic malignancies - a short report.
Article in Cellular oncology (Dordrecht, Netherlands), 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 58 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeThe use of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from body fluids as "liquid biopsies" is emerging as a promising approach for the diagnosis, prognosis and therapeutic monitoring of cancer patients. MicroRNA-155 (miR155), a non-coding transcript of the B-cell integration cluster (BIC) gene, has been reported to play a critical role in the pathogenesis of several types of hematologic malignancies (HMs) in which high miR155 levels have been found. At yet, however, the EV miR155 level and its putative clinical relevance in sera of HM patients have not been reported.
methodsEVs from sera of representative patients with eight different HMs and healthy subjects (controls) were isolated using differential centrifugation. The identity and quality of the EVs were verified by atomic force and transmission electron microscopy. The EV miR155 levels were measured by quantitative RT-PCR. The sensitivity, specificity and area under the curve (AUC) of differences in EV miR155 levels were determined using ROC curve analyses.
resultsWe found that the EV miR155 levels were significantly higher in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (WM) cases compared to controls. Conversely, we found that the EV miR155 levels were significantly lower in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and multiple myeloma (MM) cases. No differences were found in follicular lymphoma (FL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) or Hodgkin's Lymphoma (HL) cases compared to controls. EV miR155 ROC curve analyses revealed significantly different patterns in CLL and AML cases compared to controls, and in AML cases compared to MDS cases (p = 0.004, p = 0.01 and p = 0.04, respectively). In addition, we found that high EV miR155 levels correlated with high white blood cell counts in AML patients.
conclusionOur data indicate that EV miR155 may serve as an attractive new, non-invasive diagnostic biomarker in human hematologic malignancies.
