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

Retinoic acid (RA) has broad clinical applications for the treatment of various cancers, particularly acute promyelocytic leukemia. However, RA-based therapy is limited by relapse in patients associated with RA resistance, the mechanism of which is poorly understood. Here, we suggest a new molecular mechanism of RA resistance by a repressor, named RA resistance factor (RaRF). RaRF suppressed transcriptional activity of the RA receptor (RAR) by directly interacting with and sequestering RAR to the nucleolus in response to RA. RaRF was highly expressed in RA-resistant leukemia cells and its expression was strongly correlated with RA sensitivity. MCL1 was upregulated by RA treatment upon RaRF depletion, accompanying leukemic myeloblast differentiation, which is negatively regulated by ectopic RaRF expression. Collectively, we propose that RaRF may be a factor in the resistance mechanism and thus a potential target for leukemia therapy using RA.
