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

This study was to investigate the circular RNA (circRNA) expression profile and the potential circRNAs as biomarkers and therapeutic targets for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). CircRNA expression profile in bone marrow mononuclear cells from 5 AML patients and 5 healthy donor controls (HCs) was evaluated by microarray. Then, 10 candidate circRNAs (top 5 upregulated and top 5 downregulated) from microarray were validated by RT-qPCR in 130 AML patients and 50 HCs. Finally, the effects of circRNA annexin A2 (circ-ANXA2) knockdown on cell proliferation, apoptosis, chemosensitivity to cytarabine, daunorbicin and potential target microRNAs were assessed in THP-1 and KG-1 cells. By microarray, 173 upregulated and 181 downregulated circRNAs were found in AML patients than HCs, and these circRNAs were found in AML patients compared with HCs, and these circRNAs were implicated in AML-related pathways such as ErbB and EGFR pathways. By RT-qPCR, 9 of 10 candidate circRNAs (including circ-RPS6KB1, circ-CSMD2, circ-PTK2, circ-ANXA2, circ-PWP2, circ-RBM5, circ-ZZEF1, circ-GSK3B and circ-FOXP1) were dysregulated in AML patients compared with HCs. Circ-ANXA2 correlated with higher disease risk, poor risk stratification, lower complete remission level, shorter event-free survival and overall survival in AML. In cellular experiments, circ-ANXA2 was upregulated in AML cell lines, and its knockdown suppressed proliferation, enhanced apoptosis of THP-1 and KG-1 cells and increased their chemosensitivity to cytarabine and daunorbicin. Additionally, circ-ANXA2 knockdown promoted microRNA (miR)-23a-5p and miR-503-3p expression in THP-1 and KG-1 cells. In conclusion, our findings provide a macroscopic view of the circRNA expression profile in AML, and demonstrate that circ-ANXA2 may be a potential biomarker and therapeutic target for AML.
