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

In 2020, the incidence of leukemia was 474,519 with 311,594 mortality worldwide. In 2021, the American Cancer Society (ACS) has estimated 61,090 new cases of leukemia to occur within the United States. It has also been reported that the most common cause of death in children from one to fourteen years old is oncological, with leukemia being the most frequent cause. A phenomenon known as the Warburg effect has been affiliated with cancer. The Warburg effect is a metabolic abnormality of lactic acidosis in malignancies, with most cases presenting as hematological malignancies such as leukemia. Although many theories have been formulated to clarify the role of the Warburg effect, the exact role still remains uncertain. Four suggested theories on why the Warburg effect happens to include cell signaling, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesis, biosynthesis, and the tumor microenvironment. The Warburg effect occurs in leukemia with the help of enzymes such as pyruvate kinases M2 (PKM2), lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA), pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1 (PDK1), and fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1). In this literature, we explain the proposed hypotheses of the Warburg effect, along with the molecular mechanism of how leukemia is able to produce lactic acid, with the intent to better understand this phenomenon.
