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

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematopoietic malignancy whose prognosis has improved with the development of new agents such as lenalidomide over the last decade. However, long-term exposure to drugs induces the acquisition of resistance by MM cells and leads to treatment failure and poor prognosis. Here, we show the molecular and cellular mechanisms of lenalidomide resistance in MM. In a comparison between lenalidomide-resistant cell lines and the parental cell lines, extracellular vesicle (EV) secretion and adherence abilities were significantly elevated in the resistant cells. Whole-transcriptome analysis revealed that the SORT1 and LAMP2 genes were key regulators of EV secretion. Silencing of these genes caused decreased EV secretion and loss of cell adhesion in the resistant cells, resulting in increased sensitivity to lenalidomide. Analysis of publicly available transcriptome data confirmed the relationship between genes related to EV secretion and cell adhesion and patient prognosis. Together, our findings reveal a novel mechanism of lenalidomide resistance in MM mediated by EV secretion and cell adhesion via SORT1 and LAMP2.
