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 tumor suppressor protein p53 (TP53) gene is associated with various types of cancer; however, little is known about TP53 expression in patients with childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The aim of the present study was to investigate the prognostic value of TP53 expression in childhood ALL. To achieve this, TP53 mRNA levels of 146 children with ALL and 23 child donors with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura were determined by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. Relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. The results demonstrated that TP53 mRNA level in patients with ALL was higher compared with that in the ITP donors (P=0.019). Patients with highly-expressed TP53 exhibited lower percentages of peripheral blood blast, higher platelet counts and inferior complete remission rates compared with patients with low expression of TP53. Survival analyses revealed that high TP53 expression was associated with poor OS and RFS in childhood ALL (P=0.018 and P=0.028, respectively) and was an independent prognostic factor in multivariate analysis for poor RFS (P<0.001) and OS (P<0.001). In conclusion, high TP53 expression is associated with poor outcomes and may be used as a molecular prognostic marker to be incorporated into an improved risk classification system for childhood ALL.
