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

Due to the limited availability of effective treatment therapies, patients with refractory and relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) often have poor prognoses. Therefore, identifying new therapeutic targets to improve the treatment landscape and enhance AML outcomes is critical. In this study, we demonstrated for the first time that alpha-enolase (ENO1) is markedly overexpressed in AML and is closely associated with poor prognosis. In vitro experiments revealed that ENO1 knockdown (shENO1) significantly inhibited cell proliferation and invasion, and concomitantly induced cell cycle arrest. In vivo, a mouse model engrafted with U937-shENO1 cells exhibited markedly prolonged overall survival compared with a model implanted with U937 cells. Mechanistically, ENO1 operates by activating the mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MAPK/ERK) signaling pathway, as evidenced by the reversal of shENO1 function through ERK activation. Collectively, our findings highlight ENO1 as a promising therapeutic target in AML.
