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

objectiveAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a hematological malignancy with an aberrant proliferation of immature myeloid cells. This study aimed at exploring the regulatory function of circMYC in AML progression.

methodsExpression levels of CircMYC, miR-516a-5p, AKT3 and apoptosis-related proteins were determined by RT-qPCR and western blot. Cell viability and proliferation were examined by CCK8 assay and EdU assay. Annexin V/PI staining was used to assess cell apoptosis. Mitochondrial respiration function was confirmed by oxygen consumption rate (OCR). The relationships among circMYC, miR-516a-5p and AKT3 were detected by dual-luciferase reporter (DLR) assay, RNA-pull down assay and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay, respectively.

resultsCircMYC was positively correlated with poor prognosis in AML patients (all P<0.05). Knockdown of circMYC decreased cell viability and OCR but increased cell apoptosis rates (all P<0.05), and miR-516a-5p overexpression displayed the similar trend. Mechanistically, the oncogenic effects of circMYC were achieved by sponging miR-516a-5p and increasing AKT3.

conclusionDecreased expression of circMYC could suppress AML progression by regulating miR-516a-5p/AKT3, suggesting a new therapeutic target in AML treatment.
