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

We established the following two variants of the MOLM-13 human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell line: (i) MOLM-13/DAC cells are resistant to 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (DAC), and (ii) MOLM-13/AZA are resistant to 5-azacytidine (AZA). Both cell variants were obtained through a six-month selection/adaptation procedure with a stepwise increase in the concentration of either DAC or AZA. MOLM-13/DAC cells are resistant to DAC, and MOLM-13/AZA cells are resistant to AZA (approximately 50-fold and 20-fold, respectively), but cross-resistance of MOLM-13/DAC to AZA and of MOLM-13/AZA to DAC was not detected. By measuring the cell retention of fluorescein-linked annexin V and propidium iodide, we showed an apoptotic mode of death for MOLM-13 cells after treatment with either DAC or AZA, for MOLM-13/DAC cells after treatment with AZA, and for MOLM-13/AZA cells after treatment with DAC. When cells progressed to apoptosis, via JC-1 (5,5',6,6'-tetrachloro-1,1',3,3'-tetraethyl-imidacarbocyanine iodide) assay, we detected a reduction in the mitochondrial membrane potential. Furthermore, we characterized promoter methylation levels for some genes encoding proteins regulating apoptosis and the relation of this methylation to the expression of the respective genes. In addition, we focused on determining the expression levels and activity of intrinsic and extrinsic apoptosis pathway proteins.
