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

backgroundDifferential expression of miRNA provides important insights into pathogenesis of cancer including leukemia. Deregulation of microRNA may contribute to hematopoietic malignancies. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the role of miR-181a and miR-196b in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and correlate their expression with clinical and laboratory data.

methodsThe study was performed on bone marrow samples of 70 consecutive newly diagnosed pediatric (ALL) patients, of which 56 were evaluated for both miR-181a and miR-196b (all 70 for miR-181a) by real-time quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). In addition, bone marrow from seven age and sex matched healthy controls derived from donors of bone marrow transplantation were assessed.

resultsmiR-181a expression was significantly up-regulated in ALL patients compared with healthy controls (p <0.001). However, miR-196b expression was significantly down-regulated in patients compared with healthy controls (p=0.038).

conclusionOur results suggest that miR-181a has an oncogenic, while miR-196b has a tumor suppressive role in pediatric ALL patients. A finding which demonstrate the potential role of these microRNAs in pathogenesis of pediatric ALL. Also, estimation of their expression level may provide a tool for confirmation of a diagnosis of childhood ALL and could be a possible predictor of early relapse.<br />.
