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

Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in the pathogenesis of leukemia and their altered expression is associated with many types of solid and hematological malignancies. Methods: The study was performed on 70 consecutive newly diagnosed pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients, of which 56 were evaluated for both bone marrow miR-128 and let-7b (all 70 for let-7b) by real-time quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). In addition, seven age and sex matched healthy controls were assessed. Results: miR-128 expression was significantly higher in ALL patients compared with healthy controls (p<0.001). However, the expression levels of let-7b showed no statistical significant difference between the groups. No significant links were noted with clinical details, laboratory data and response to treatment. Conclusion: The results suggest that determination of miR-128 expression level may provide a tool for confirmation of a diagnosis of childhood ALL, follow up for response of treatment and a possible predictor of early relapse. Any role of let-7b in pediatric ALL needs to be further assessed.
