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

Hyper activity of protooncogene c-Myc is one of the hallmarks of highly aggressive lymphomas. However, the mechanism of how c-Myc is subjected to activation and amplification is still not well defined. In this study, we use gene knockout strategy to show that targeted depletion of a well-conserved microRNA gene locus miR-144/451 initiates tumorigenesis including B-lymphoma development in aged mice. This is due, at least in part, to the direct activation of the c-Myc gene by loss of miR-144/451 expression in hematopoietic cells. Moreover, oncoprotein c-Myc inversely regulates miR-144/451 expression by directly binding to the miR-144/451 promoter region, forming a miRNA-Myc positive feedback loop to safeguard the high level of c-Myc in B-lymphocytes. We also demonstrate that this miRNA-Myc crosstalk is disrupted in human diffuse large B-cell lymphomas with aberrant c-Myc expression. Therefore, our findings provide strong evidence, for the first time, that deficiency of miR-144/451 expression may play a bona fide role in derepression of silenced c-Myc, which contributes to tumor development including B-lymphomagenesis.
