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

The present study aimed to detect the frequency of kinase domain (KD) mutations in order to evaluate their clinical significance and functional importance in 45 patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who were resistant to imatinib therapy. Sanger sequencing was used (45 patients), along with allele-specific oligonucleotide polymerase chain reaction (ASO-PCR; 3 patients), for the screening of mutations. BCR/ABL KD was amplified by nested PCR and sequencing was performed. Secondly, ASO-PCR was performed to confirm the results of the sequence analysis for E255K mutations. Mutations were detected in 11/45 patients (24.44%) via Sanger sequencing. D241G (4.4%), C369C (4.4%), K285N (2.2%), A380T (2.2%) and A366V (2.2%) mutations were detected. E255K (8.8%) was detected by ASO-PCR and Sanger sequencing. Mutations are a primary reason for suboptimal responses, loss of response and resistance to imatinib. In particular, the E255K mutation, which is characterized by resistance to imatinib and nilotinib, was detected in four patients. Analyzing the mutations and monitoring patients with CML may improve their prognosis and survival rate. ASO-PCR assays will be beneficial for the routine monitoring of mutations.
