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

purposeBurkitt lymphoma (BL) is a B-cell lymphoma frequently diagnosed in children. It is characterized by MYC translocations, which lead to the constitutive expression of the MYC oncogene. MYC contributes to miR-29 repression through an E-box MYC binding site on the miR-29b-1/miR-29a promoter region. We evaluated the role of miR-29a/b/c and their predicted targets in BL pathogenesis.

methodsMature sequences of miR-29a/b/c were transfected to the BL cell lines BL41 and Raji, and evaluated for DNMT3B, MCL1, BIM, CDK6, AKT and TCL1 protein expression as well as for MCL-1 and CDK6 mRNA expression. BL cells were treated with 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (decitabine) and evaluated for miR29 expressions and methylation status. DNMT3B inhibition was performed by DNMT3B siRNA.

resultsEctopic expression of miR-29s in BL cells decreased CDK6, DNMT3B, TCL1 and MCL-1 protein levels, but CDK6 and MCL-1 mRNA expression was unaffected by miR-29. Decitabine enhanced miR-29 expression levels and decreased CDK6 protein expression. Additionally, inhibition of DNMT3B by siRNA increased miR-29a/b expression. Notably, the miR-29a/b1 and miR-29b2/c promoter genes showed methylated CpG sequences that were demethylated after decitabine treatments. Furthermore, MYC-negative tumours had higher levels of miR-29 expression compared with MYC-translocated cases, suggesting that MYC regulates miR-29 in BL tumours.

conclusionsOur results suggest a significant role for miR-29s in BL pathogenesis in altering the expression of targets involved in critical cancer pathways, such as cell cycle control, apoptosis inhibition and DNA methylation. Moreover, methylation-mediated miR-29 epigenetic silencing may occur during BL development.
