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

Autophagy is an important mechanism involved in the regulation of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) chemoresistance. The long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) differentiation antagonizing non-protein coding RNA (DANCR) exhibits oncogenic activity in several types of human cancers, including AML, but it remains unclear whether it regulates autophagy and chemoresistance in AML. We report here that cytarabine (Ara-C) treatment elevates DANCR expression in human AML cells. In addition, DANCR overexpression confers and its knockdown diminishes Ara-C resistance in human AML cells, suggesting that DANCR positively regulates AML chemoresistance to Ara-C. Moreover, DANCR promotes autophagy in Ara-C-treated human AML cells and acts as a sponge to decrease miR-20a-5p expression, thereby upregulating the expression of ATG16L1, a critical component of the autophagy machinery. Importantly, ATG16L1 silencing abrogates DANCR-promoted autophagy and markedly restores DANCR-conferred Ara-C resistance, suggesting that DANCR promotes MIR-874-3P/ATG16L1 axis-regulated autophagy to confer Ara-C resistance in human AML cells. Together, this study identifies DANCR as a positive regulator of Ara-C resistance in human AML cells, suggesting this lncRNA as a potential target for overcoming Ara-C resistance in AML chemotherapy.
