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

backgroundThe aim of this study is to find the potential survival related DNA methylation signature capable of predicting survival time for acute myelocytic leukemia (AML) patients.

methodsDNA methylation data were downloaded. DNA methylation signature was identified in the training group, and subsequently validated in an independent validation group. The overall survival of DNA methylation signature was performed. Functional analysis was used to explore the function of corresponding genes of DNA methylation signature. Differentially methylated sites and CpG islands were also identified in poor-risk group.

resultsA DNA methylation signature involving 8 DNA methylation sites and 6 genes were identified. Functional analysis showed that protein binding and cytoplasm were the only two enriched Gene Ontology terms. A total of 70 differentially methylated sites and 6 differentially methylated CpG islands were identified in poor-risk group.

conclusionsThe identified survival related DNA methylation signature adds to the prognostic value of AML.
