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 the face of constant genomic insults, the DNA damage response (DDR) is initiated to preserve genome integrity; its disruption is a classic hallmark of cancer. Protein phosphatase Mg2+/Mn2+-dependent 1D (PPM1D) is a central negative regulator of the DDR that is mutated or amplified in many solid cancers. PPM1D overexpression is associated with increased proliferative and metastatic behavior in multiple solid tumor types and patients with PPM1D-mutated malignancies have poorer prognoses. Recent findings have sparked an interest in the role of PPM1D in hematologic malignancies. Acquired somatic mutations may provide hematopoietic stem cells with a competitive advantage, leading to a substantial proportion of mutant progeny in the peripheral blood, an age-associated phenomenon termed "clonal hematopoiesis" (CH). Recent large-scale genomic studies have identified PPM1D to be among the most frequently mutated genes found in individuals with CH. While PPM1D mutations are particularly enriched in patients with therapy-related myeloid neoplasms, their role in driving leukemic transformation remains uncertain. Here, we examine the mechanisms through which PPM1D overexpression or mutation may drive malignancy by suppression of DNA repair, cell-cycle arrest, and apoptosis. We also discuss the divergent roles of PPM1D in the oncogenesis of solid versus hematologic cancers with a view to clinical implications and new therapeutic avenues.
