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 prognosis for multiple myeloma (MM) has continued to improve with the development of a series of novel molecular targeted drugs over time. However, the prognosis remains poor for cases with high-risk chromosomal abnormalities. Of such abnormalities, t(4;14) is the second most common, occurring in 15% of patients with MM. MM cells carrying t(4;14) strongly express histone methyltransferase with a SET domain, called NSD2, making them resistant to drugs against MM. Therefore, NSD2 is a promising therapeutic target for MM carrying t(4;14). Subsequently, we performed high-throughput screening and identified RK-0080552 (RK-552) as a novel class NSD2 inhibitor. RK-552 was significantly cytotoxic against t(4;14)
