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

The mitochondrial quality control network includes several epigenetically-regulated genes involved in mitochondrial dynamics, mitophagy, and mitochondrial biogenesis under physiologic conditions. Dysregulated expression of such genes has been reported in various disease contexts, including cancer. However, their expression pattern and the possible underlying epigenetic modifications remain to be defined within plasma cell (PC) dyscrasias. Herein, we compared the mRNA expression of mitochondrial quality control genes from multiple myeloma, plasma cell leukemia patients and human myeloma cell lines (HMCLs) with healthy plasma cells; moreover, by applying the Sequenom MassARRAY EpiTYPER technology, we performed a pilot investigation of their CpG methylation status in HMCLs. Overall, the results provided indicate dysregulated expression of several mitochondrial network's genes, and alteration of the CpG methylation profile, underscoring novel potential myeloma biomarkers deserving in-depth functional investigation in the future.
