Do high-mobility group box 1 gene polymorphisms affect the incidence of differentiation syndrome in acute promyelocytic leukemia?
Article in Molecular biology reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
backgroundDifferentiation syndrome (DS) is an inflammatory complication seen in some patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) undergoing differentiation therapy with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and/or arsenic trioxide (ATO). It is unknown how DS occurs, but it is believed that it is caused by inflammatory cytokines release from differentiating leukemic cells. High mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) is a DNA-binding protein that acts as a cytokine outside of cells and may play a role in inflammation. This study was conducted to determine whether HMGB1 polymorphisms (rs1360485, rs2249825 and rs1060348) are associated with the incidence of differentiation syndrome in acute promyelocytic leukemia patients treated with all-trans retinoic acid and arsenic trioxide.
methodsOne hundred and thirty APL patients and 100 healthy controls were included. Seventeen patients with differentiation syndrome were selected according to the PETHEMA criteria. Tetra-primer ARMS polymerase chain reaction (tetra-ARMS PCR) was used to determine the genotype distribution of polymorphisms. DNA sequencing was done to validate the results.
resultsIn both healthy and APL patients, AA was the most frequent genotype in rs1360485 followed by AG and GG. CC, CG, and GG were the most frequent genotypes in rs2249825 polymorphism in the order mentioned. CC was more frequent than CT, and CT was more frequent than TT in rs1060348. There was no correlation between HMGB1 polymorphisms and the incidence of differentiation syndrome based on genetic models (p-value > 0.05).
conclusionsHMGB1 polymorphisms are not probably associated with DS development in APL patients treated with ATRA and ATO.
