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

backgroundThe current study aims to investigate the relationship of miR-24 expression with plasma methotrexate (MTX) levels, therapy-related toxicities, and event-free survival (EFS) in Iranian pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients.

methodsThe study included 74 ALL patients in consolidation phase and 41 healthy children. RNA was extracted from plasma, polyadenylated, and reverse transcribed. miR-24 expression was determined by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Plasma MTX concentrations were measured by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) 48 h after high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) injection. The diagnosis of ALL was further subclassified as B-ALL or T-ALL via flow cytometry.

resultsmiR-24 expression was less in pediatric ALL patients than in the control group (p = 0.0038). Furthermore, downregulation of miR-24 was correlated with intermediate- to high-grade HD-MTX therapy toxicities (p = 0.025). Nevertheless, no statistically significant associations were seen between miR-24 levels and plasma MTX levels 48 h after HD-MTX administration (p > 0.05) or EFS in pediatric ALL patients (p > 0.05).

conclusionmiR-24 expression may contribute to interindividual variability in response to intermediate- to highgrade HD-MTX therapy toxicities under Berlin Frankfurt Munster (BFM) treatment.
