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.
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
objectiveBCR-ABL fusion oncogene is the hallmark of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), causing genomic instability which leads to accumulation of mutations in BCR-ABL as well as other genes. BCR-ABL mutations are the cause of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) resistance in CML. Recently, compound BCR-ABL mutations have been reported to resist all FDA approved TKIs. Therefore, finding novel compound BCR-ABL mutations can help and clinically manage CML. Therefore, our objective was to find out novel drug-resistant compound BCR-ABL mutations in CML and carry out their protein modelling studies. METHODOLOGY: Peripheral blood samples were collected from ten imatinib resistant CML patients receiving nilotinib treatment. BCR-ABL transcript mutations were investigated by employing capillary sequencing. Patient follow-up was carried out using European LeukemiaNet guidelines. Protein modeling studies were carried out for new compound mutations using PyMol to see the effects of mutations at structural level.
resultsA novel compound mutation (K245N mutation along with G250W mutation) and previously known T351I utation was detected in two of the nilotinib resistance CML patients respectively while in the rest of 8 nilotinib responders, no resistant mutations were detected. Protein modelling studies indicated changes in BCR-ABL mutant protein which may have negatively impacted its binding with nilotinib leading to drug resistance.
conclusionWe report a novel nilotinib resistant BCR-ABL compound mutation (K245N along with G250W mutation) which impacts structural modification in BCR-ABL mutant protein leading to drug resistance. As compound mutations pose a new threat by causing resistance to all FDA approved tyrosine kinase inhibitors in BCR-ABL+ leukemias, our study opens a new direction for in vitro characterization of novel BCR-ABL compound mutations and their resistant to second generation and third generation TKIs.
