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
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) shows multiple chromosomal translocations & point mutations which can be used to refine risk-adapted therapy in AML patients. Ecotropic viral integration site-1 (EVI-1) & myocyte enhancer factor 2 C gene (MEF2C) are key regulatory transcription factors in hematopoiesis and leukemogenesis & both drive immune escape. This prospective study involved 80 adult de novo AML patients recruited from Oncology Center, Mansoura University, between March 2019 and July 2021. The MEF2C and EVI1 expression were measured using a Taqman probe-based qPCR assay. The results revealed that EVI1 and MEF2C expression were significantly elevated in AML patients as compared to control subjects (p = 0.001. 0.007 respectively). Aberrant expressions of EVI1 and MEF2C showed a significant negative correlation with hemoglobin levels (p = 0.034, 0.025 respectively), & bone marrow blasts (p = 0.007, 0.002 respectively). 11q23 translocation was significantly associated with EVI1 and MEF2C (p = 0.004 and 0.02 respectively). Also, t (9;22) was significantly associated with EVI1 and MEF2C (p = 0.01 and 0.03 respectively), higher expression of EVI1 and MEF2C were significantly associated with inferior outcome after induction therapy (p = 0.001 and 0.018 respectively) and shorter overall survival (p = 0.001, 0.014 respectively). In conclusion, EVI1 & MEF2C were significantly expressed in AML cases. EVI1 & MEF2C overexpression were significantly associated with 11q23 rearrangements and t (9;22) and were indicators for poor outcome in adult AML patients; These results could be a step towards personalized therapy in those patients.
