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.

Abstract

The nucleoside analogue decitabine can deplete the epigenetic regulator DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1), an effect that occurs, and is saturated at, low concentrations/doses. A reason to pursue this molecular-targeted effect instead of the DNA damage/cytotoxicity produced with high concentrations/doses, is that non-cytotoxic DNMT1-depletion can cytoreduce even p53-null myeloid malignancies while sparing normal haematopoiesis. We thus identified minimum doses of decitabine (0·1-0·2 mg/kg) that deplete DNMT1 without off-target anti-metabolite effects/cytotoxicity, and then administered these well-tolerated doses frequently 1-2X/week to increase S-phase dependent DNMT1-depletion, and used a Myeloid Malignancy Registry to evaluate long-term outcomes in 69 patients treated this way. Consistent with the scientific rationale, treatment was well-tolerated and durable responses were produced (~40%) in genetically heterogeneous disease and the very elderly.
