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

Purpose: Relapsed and refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML) has a poor prognosis due to chemotherapy resistance. Mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to this resistance, but the role of the RNA component of mitochondrial RNA processing endoribonuclease (RMRP) in R/R AML remains unclear. Materials and Methods: Mass spectrometry identified molecules linked to chemoresistance in AML. The role of RMRP was examined by assessing its impact on mitochondrial transfer in the AML bone marrow microenvironment. Transmission electron microscopy and western blotting were used to study mitochondrial function and autophagy in RMRP-knockdown AML cells. Results: RMRP was overexpressed in R/R AML, and its silencing sensitized AML cells to chemotherapy drugs. RMRP knockdown reduced mitochondrial respiratory capacity, mitochondrial DNA copy numbers, and mitochondrial gene transcription. It also led to altered mitophagy markers and increased mitochondrial DNA methylation. Immunoprecipitation revealed RMRP-telomerase reverse transcriptase complex formation, suggesting a role in post-transcriptional regulation of mitochondrial function and reactive oxygen species production. Conclusion: High RMRP expression in R/R AML is linked to mitochondrial dysfunction and chemotherapy resistance, providing new insights into potential therapeutic strategies to overcome drug resistance in this disease.
