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

(1)

backgroundThe Mixed lineage leukemia 1 (MLL1) gene, located on chromosome 11q23, plays a pivotal role in histone lysine-specific methylation and is consistently associated with various types of leukemia. Non-synonymous Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (nsSNPs) have been tied to numerous diseases, including cancers, and have become valuable cancer biomarkers. There's a notable gap in studies probing the influence of SNPs on MLL1 protein structure, function, and subsequent modifications. (2)

methodsWe utilized an array of bioinformatics tools, including PredictSNP, InterPro, ConSurf, I-Mutant2.0, MUpro, Musitedeep, Project HOPE, RegulomeDB, Mutpred2, and both CScape and CScape Somatic, to meticulously analyze the consequences of nsSNPs in the MLL1 gene. (3)

resultsOut of 2,097 nsSNPs analyzed, 62 were determined to be significantly pathogenic by the PredictSNP tool, with ten crucial MLL1 functional domains identified using InterPro. Additionally, 50 of these nsSNPs had high conservation scores, hinting at potential effects on protein structure and function, while 32 were found to undermine MLL1 protein stability. Notably, four nsSNPs were deemed oncogenic, with two identified as cancer drivers. The nsSNP, D2724G, between the MLL1 protein's FY-rich domains, could disrupt proteolytic cleavage, altering gene expression patterns and potentially promoting cancer. (4)

conclusionsOur research provides a comprehensive assessment of nsSNPs' impact in the MLL1 protein structure and function and consequently on leukemia development, suggesting potential avenues for personalized treatment, early detection, improved prognosis, and a deeper understanding of hematological malignancy genesis.
