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

backgroundtRNA-derived fragments have been reported to be key regulatory factors in human tumors. However, their roles in the progression of multiple myeloma remain unknown.

resultsThis study employed RNA-sequencing to explore the expression profiles of tRFs/tiRNAs in new diagnosed MM and relapsed/refractory MM samples. The expression of selected tRFs/tiRNAs were further validated in clinical specimens and myeloma cell lines by qPCR. Bioinformatic analysis was performed to predict their roles in multiple myeloma progression.We identified 10 upregulated tRFs/tiRNAs and 16 downregulated tRFs/tiRNAs. GO enrichment and KEGG pathway analysis were performed to analyse the functions of 1 significantly up-regulated and 1 significantly down-regulated tRNA-derived fragments. tRFs/tiRNAs may be involved in MM progression and drug-resistance.

conclusiontRFs/tiRNAs were dysregulated and could be potential biomarkers for relapsed/refractory MM.
