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

backgroundAcute myeloid leukaemia (AML) results from the clonal expansion of blast cells of myeloid origin driven by genomic defects. The advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) have allowed the identification of many mutated genes important in the pathogenesis of AML.

aimsIn this study, we aimed to assess the mutation types and frequency in a Chinese cohort presenting with de novo AML cohort using a targeted NGS strategy.

methodsIn total, we studied samples from 87 adult patients with de novo AML who had no prior history of cytotoxic chemotherapy. Samples were evaluated using a 120-gene targeted NGS panel to assess the mutation profile.

resultsOf the 87 AML patients, there were 60 (69%) with a normal karyotype. 89.7% of patients had variants, with an average of 1.9 mutations per patient (range: 0-5 mutations per patient). DNMT3A variants were the most common, being detected in 33 patients (37.9%). NPM1 (34.5%), IDH1/2 (24.1%) and FLT3-ITD (20.7%) mutations was the next most common. Of the patients with DNMT3A mutations, 24.2% also had mutations NPM1 and FLT3-ITD and 6.1% NPM1, FLT3-ITD and IDH mutations.

conclusionBoth DNMT3A and NPM1 mutations were more common than in other Chinese and Western AML cohorts that have been studied. DNMT3A mutations tended to co-occur with NPM1 and FLT3-ITD mutations and were most commonly seen with a normal karyotype.
