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

Acute leukemias are highly aggressive hematologic malignancies that demand intensive chemotherapy regimens. However, drug toxicity remains a major barrier to treatment success and patient survival. In this context, pharmacogenomics offers a promising strategy by identifying single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) that influence drug metabolism, efficacy, and toxicity, ultimately impacting treatment outcomes. This study analyzed data from the ClinPGx/PharmGKB database to identify clinically annotated variants related to chemotherapy response in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). A total of 24 variants were curated for AML and 57 for ALL. Among these, nonsynonymous variants were most frequent in ALL (31.6%), while synonymous variants predominated in AML (33.3%). Although traditionally considered neutral, synonymous and intronic variants may influence gene expression through regulatory or splicing mechanisms. The analysis revealed clinically significant variants associated with chemotherapy response, particularly in the
