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

BACKGROUND/

aimDeregulated activation of signaling through the RAS/RAF/mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK) and signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathways is involved in numerous hematological malignancies, making it an attractive therapeutic target. This study aimed to assess the effect of the combination of ERK2 inhibitor VX-11e and STAT3 inhibitor STA-21 on acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell lines REH and MOLT-4. MATERIALS AND

methodsREH and MOLT-4 cell lines were cultured with each drug alone and in combination. Cell viability, ERK activity, cell cycle distribution, apoptosis and oxidative stress induction were assessed by flow cytometry. Protein levels of STAT3, phospho-STAT3, protein tyrosine phosphatase 4A3 (PTP4A3), survivin, p53 and p21 were determined by western blotting.

resultsVX-11e in combination with STA-21 significantly inhibited cell viability, induced G

conclusionOur findings provide a rationale for combined inhibition of RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK and STAT3 pathways in order to enhance anticancer effects against acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells.
