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

backgroundAsparaginase (ASNase) is a key component in the treatment protocols of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Asparagine synthetase (ASNS) and the basic region leucine zipper activating transcription factor 5 (ATF5) mediate the anti-leukemic effect of ASNase. Only a few reports studied the association between polymorphisms in these genes and treatment-related toxicity and response. Therefore, the current study aimed to investigate the association of ASNS and ATF5 polymorphisms with the susceptibility to ASNase-related toxicity and disease outcome in a population of childhood ALL Egyptian patients.

methodsIn this study, 88 children with ALL were enrolled and genotyped for ASNS T629A and ATF5 C362T polymorphisms using allelic discrimination assay.

resultsThe studied polymorphisms did not associate with hypersensitivity or thrombosis, while the ATF5 C362T polymorphism was associated significantly with decreased ASNase-associated pancreatitis (AAP) risk under the dominant model. Patients carrying TT/CT genotypes of ATF5 C362T polymorphism had a significantly better overall survival (OS) and longer event-free survival (EFS) compared to patients with CC genotype. Multivariate analysis confirmed the independent prognostic value of the ATF5 C362T dominant model.

conclusionATF5 362TT and CT genotypes were associated with decreased risk to develop AAP and better disease outcome demonstrating a low risk for events and superior survival.
