A unique set of complex chromosomal abnormalities in an infant with myeloid leukemia associated with Down syndrome.
Article in Molecular cytogenetics, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundChildren with Down syndrome (DS) have an enhanced risk of developing acute leukemia, with the most common subtype being acute megakaryoblastic leukemia (AMKL). Myeloid leukemia in Down syndrome (ML-DS) is considered a disease with distinct clinical and biological features. There are few studies focusing on the clonal cytogenetic changes during evolution of ML-DS. CASE PRESENTATION: Here, we describe a complex karyotype involving a previously unreported set of chromosomal abnormalities acquired during progression of ML-DS in an infant boy: derivative der(1)t(1;15)(q24;q23), translocation t(4;5)(q26;q33) and derivative der(15)t(7;15)(p21;q23). Different molecular cytogenetic probes and probesets including whole chromosome painting (WCP) and locus specific probes, as well as, multicolor-FISH and multicolor chromosome banding (MCB) were performed in order to characterize the chromosomal abnormalities involved in this complex karyotype. The patient was treated according to the acute myeloid leukemia-Berlin-Frankfurt-Munich-2004 (AML-BFM 2004) treatment protocol for patients with Down syndrome; however, he experienced a poor clinical outcome.
conclusionThe molecular cytogenetic studies performed, allowed the characterization of novel chromosomal abnormalities in ML-DS and possible candidate genes involved in the leukemogenic process. Our findings suggest that the complex karyotype described here was associated with the poor prognosis.
