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

backgroundAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a type of blood cancer characterized by fast cellular proliferation. Myeloid cell leukemia-1 (Mcl-1) and survivin, as anti-apoptotic proteins, are involved in cancer growth and resistance to chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to examine the combination effect of Mcl-1 and survivin specific siRNAs on chemosensitivity of the human HL-60 AML cells.

methodsSiRNAs transfection was performed by using Lipofectamine™2000 reagent. The mRNA expression was analyzed by real-time quantitative PCR. The apoptosis analysis was measured by ELISA cell death assay.

resultssiRNAs markedly suppressed mRNA expression levels of Mcl-1 and survivin in a time-dependent manner, resulting in reduction of leukemic cell proliferation and enhanced spontaneous cell death. Surprisingly, Mcl-1 siRNA and survivin siRNA synergistically enhanced the cell toxic effects of etoposide. Furthermore, down-regulation of Mcl-1 and survivin significantly enhanced the apoptotic effect of etoposide.

conclusionsOur investigation suggests that suppression of Mcl-1 and survivin by siRNA can effectually inhibit cell growth and overcome chemoresistance of AML cells. Therefore siRNAs may be an important adjuvant in chemotherapy for AML patients.
