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

The backbone of therapy for elderly patients with myelodysplastic syndromes and acute myeloid leukemia consists of hypomethylating agents 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (DAC) and 5-azacytidine (AZA). However, resistance frequently emerges during treatment. To investigate the mechanisms of resistance, we generated DAC-resistant variants of the acute myeloid leukemia cell lines, MOLM-13 and SKM-1, through their prolonged cultivation in increasing concentrations of DAC. The resistant cell variants, MOLM-13/DAC and SKM-1/DAC, exhibited cross-resistance to cytarabine and gemcitabine, but remained sensitive to AZA. Existing studies have suggested that the loss of deoxycytidine kinase (DCK) may play an important role in DAC resistance. DCK is critical for DAC activation, but the precise mechanisms of its downregulation remain incompletely understood. We identified a novel point mutation (A180P) in
