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 high mobility group A (HMGA) protein family is composed of three non-histone chromatin remodeling proteins that act as architectural transcriptional factors. Indeed, although HMGA proteins lack transcriptional activity per se, they bind the minor groove of DNA at AT-rich sequences, and, interacting with the transcription machinery, are able to modify chromatin modeling, thus regulating the expression of several genes. HMGA proteins have been deeply involved in embryogenesis process, and a large volume of studies has pointed out their key role in human cancer. Here, we review the studies on the role of the HMGA proteins in human hematological malignancies: they are overexpressed in most of the cases and their expression correlates with a reduced survival. In some cases, such as in acute lymphoblastic leukemia and acute myelogenous leukemia, HMGA2 gene rearrangements have been also described. Finally, recent studies evidence a synergism between HMGA and EZH2 in diffuse B-cell lymphomas, suggesting an innovative therapy for this disease based on the inhibition of the function of both these proteins.
