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

backgroundReceptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of diverse human cancers. However, the role of RIPK3 in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is not fully understood, which needs further research and clarification.

methodsWe first identified the expression and clinical prognostic value of RIPK3 in AML through a public database and further validated in our research cohort. In addition, the biological function of RIPK3 in leukemic development was further verified through in vitro experiments.

resultsBased on the GEPIA database, we screened that RIPK3 overexpression among RIPK family was associated with poor prognosis in AML. Afterwards, another independent cohort from our research center further confirmed the expression pattern of RIPK3 in AML patients. Clinically, increased RIPK3 expression was closely related to specific subtypes of AML, such as FAB-M4/M5, normal karyotype and NPM1 mutation. The significant association of RIPK3 overexpression with FAB-M4/M5 was further validated in AML cell lines. Notably, AML patients with RIPK3 overexpression received transplantation presented a markedly longer survival than those just receiving chemotherapy, whereas those with RIPK3 underexpression showed similar survival between transplantation and chemotherapy group. Bioinformatics analysis showed the significant association of RIPK3 expression with diverse oncogenes/tumor suppressor genes and tumor-related biological processes in AML. Subsequently, we further performed functional experiments in vitro confirmed the potential oncogenic role of RIPK3 in AML.

conclusionsOverexpression of RIPK3 was associated with specific subtypes of AML, such as FAB-M4/M5, normal karyotype and NPM1 mutation, and may facilitate the leukemic development. Moreover, RIPK3 overexpression was associated poor prognosis, and may guide treatment choice in AML.
