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

In many malignancies, dysregulation of the Notch pathways, composed of 4 Notch receptors (Notch1-4) and 5 Notch ligands (Jagged1-2, Delta-like ligand-1, 3-4), is associated with their development. In mycosis fungoides, interaction between Notch1 and Jagged1 is known to activate the Notch pathways and promote the proliferation of tumour cells. However, the involvement of other Notch ligands has not been reported. This study investigated the roles of Delta-like ligand 4 in mycosis fungoides. Delta-like ligand 4 mRNA levels in lesional skin of patients with mycosis fungoides were significantly elevated compared with those of normal controls, and correlated with disease-specific mortality. Immunohistochemical staining demonstrated prominent expression of Delta-like ligand 4 on vascular endothelial cells and tumour cells in mycosis fungoides lesional skin. In addition, Delta-like ligand 4 augmented the proliferation of cutaneous T-cell lym-phoma cell lines. These results suggest that enhanced Delta-like ligand 4 expression may contribute directly to the progression of mycosis fungoides through proliferating tumour cells.
