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

purposeHigh expression of ecotropic viral integration site 1 (EVI1) has been associated with a poor prognosis in leukemia patients, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Aberrant expression of microRNAs plays critical roles in leukemia development. MiR-9 is a putative potential target of EVI1. We have investigated the regulating mechanism of miR-9 by EVI1 in leukemia cells.

methodsWe first examined the relationship between miR-9 and EVI1 expression levels in nine leukemia cell lines by RT-PCR. Then we forced high expression of EVI1 in UoCM1 and K562 cells to confirm the downregulation of miR-9 by EVI1. Methylation of the miR-9 promoter region was detected by DNA bisulfite sequencing. We treated the EVI1-overexpressing cells with the hypomethylating agent 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-AZA) to reverse EVI1-induced hypermethylation of miR-9.

resultsEVI1 and miR-9 expression was negative related. Forced expression of EVI1 downregulated miR-9 by inducing hypermethylation of the miR-9 promoter. 5-AZA reversed high EVI1-induced hypermethylation of the miR-9 promoter and restored the expression of miR-9. 5-AZA induced extensive apoptosis and inhibited proliferation through cell cycle arrest in EVI1-overexpressing leukemia cells.

conclusionsOur results suggest that EVI1 may be involved in leukemia cell proliferation and apoptosis via the regulation of miR-9 promoter methylation. 5-AZA may represent a promising therapeutic option for EVI1-high leukemia patients.
