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

Multiple myeloma (MM) is closely associated with abnormal DNA repair and genome instability. The bone marrow microenvironment, particularly myeloma-associated macrophages (MΦ), is critical to the progression of MM. However, there is limited understanding on the role of MΦ in DNA repair in MM. Here, we found that MΦ regulated DNA repair in MM cells by the CXCL5/8-CXCR2 axis. By promoting non-homologous end joining rather than homology-directed repair, MΦ increased the probability of chromosomal translocations in MM cells. Furthermore, clinical data confirmed that MΦ are closely associated to the increased genetic variations of MM patients' primary cells. The study elucidates a mechanism by which MΦ regulate DNA repair in MM in the microenvironment and provides a potentially new target to counter MM progression.
