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

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) act as tumor regulators in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). However, the molecular mechanisms by which miRNA-139 (miR-139) regulates T-ALL remain unclear. In this study, we found that miR-139 was lowly expressed whereas C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) was highly expressed in T-ALL cell lines and patient samples. The T-ALL patients simultaneously with high levels of CXCR4 and low expression of miR-139 possessed poor prognosis. Moreover, the introduction of miR-139 inhibited T-ALL cell proliferation and invasion in vitro and suppressed tumor growth and lung metastasis in vivo. CXCR4 was identified as a direct target of miR-139. The suppressive effects of miR-139 were mimicked and counteracted by CXCR4 depletion and overexpression, respectively. Overall, the miR-139/CXCR4 axis plays an important role in T-ALL carcinogenesis.
