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

backgroundAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a hematopoietic stem cell disorder that carries very poor prognosis. Understanding molecular basis of AML leukemogenesis could lead to the emergence of effective targeted therapies for AML. AML bearing nucleophosmin (NPM) gene mutation has distinct features. This study was conducted to investigate the role of mutated (m) NPM in pathogenesis of

methodsTwo types of human leukemia cell lines were used. One of them was a model for AMLs with mNPM and the other for AMLs with wild type (wt) NPM. Assessment of the proliferative role of mNPM in AML was carried out using cell culture and viability studies. The obtained results were reaffirmed by immunocytochemical and immunoblotting techniques.

resultsAnalysis of results was done with the appropriate computer software. It showed higher proliferative potential of cells with mNPM compared to those bearing wtNPM only. Furthermore, the immunocytochemical studies demonstrated subcellular localization of NPM isoforms during various phases of mitosis. Mitosis was associated with cytoplasmic translocation of wtNPM in certain phases, while localization of mNPM remained unchanged throughout the cell cycle. Results of immunoblotting showed little or no change in protein expression of either NPM moieties during mitosis.

conclusionsThe current study demonstrated important contribution of NPM gene mutation in enhancing proliferation of AML cell lines. These results confirmed the role of mNPM in AML leukemogenesis, and highlighted the importance of targeting mNPM in new evolving AML therapies.
