Clinical implications and genetical insights of SOX6 expression in acute myeloid leukemia.
Article in Journal of cancer research and clinical oncology, 2023. 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
backgroundTranscription factor SOX6 belongs to Sry-related high-mobility-group box (SOX) family, has been reported to be downregulated and acts as a tumor-suppressor gene in various solid tumors, but in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is incompletely understood.
methodsThe SOX6 expression was analyzed between AML patients and normal controls from public data and our research cohort. Correlations between SOX6 expression and clinical, genetic features together with survival were further analyzed.
resultsIn both public and our present datasets, we demonstrated that SOX6 expression is notably downregulated in AML patients compared with normal controls. Moreover, the expression level of SOX6 was dynamic, along with the disease status. SOX6 was significantly decreased in relapsed/refractory AML compared with complete remission AML. Clinically, SOX6 underexpression was significantly correlated with bone marrow blasts, and WBC counts. Furthermore, decreased expression of SOX6 was more common in core binding factor AML (CBF-AML), rarely found in complex karyotype AML (CK-AML), and correlated with FLT3 mutations. By survival analyses, low-expression of SOX6 was associated with shorter overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) among cytogenetic normal AML (CN-AML) patients. Moreover, both univariate and multivariate analyses showed that low SOX6 expression was an independent unfavorable prognostic biomarker for CN-AML.
conclusionsOur findings indicated that SOX6 underexpression, as a frequent event in AML, was associated with genetic abnormalities and prognosis in AML. SOX6 might be a valuable biomarker for risk stratification, predicting prognosis and relapse of AML.
