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 relapse and resistance to cytarabine (Ara-C) therapy is still a dominating obstacle to the successful clinical treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Recent studies have shown that dysregulation of miRNAs might modulate the resistance of cancer cells to anticancer drugs; yet, the mechanism is not fully understood. In this study, we showed a significant downregulation of miR-134 in human multidrug-resistant leukemia cells and relapsed/refractory AML patient samples. Overexpression of miR-134 sensitized K562/A02 and HL-60/ADM cells to Ara-C, inhibited cell colony formation, and enhanced the ability of Ara-C to induce apoptosis. Mechanistic analyses revealed that Mnks was a putative target of miR-134, which was inversely correlated with miR-134 expression in human multidrug-resistant leukemia cells and relapsed/refractory AML patient samples. Further investigation showed that miR-134 increased the anti-tumor effects of Ara-C through inhibiting phosphorylation of eukaryotic initiation factor 4E and downregulating Mcl-1 and bcl2, which was independent of p38 and Erk1/2 activation. Taken together, our results demonstrate that miR-134 plays a pivotal role in AML Ara-C resistance through increasing cell sensitivity to Ara-C and promoting apoptosis by targeting Mnks.
