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 myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogenous disease characterized by the accumulation of immature myeloid blasts with distinct genetic mutations in the bone marrow and peripheral blood. AML co-evolve with other components of specialized bone marrow niches within a microenvironment enriched in cytokines and inflammatory cells; among these, interleukin-1 (IL-1) may act as a tumor driver. This review examines two complementary aspects of AML biology in relation to IL-1. First, we describe the functional activity of IL-1 and the signaling pathways triggered by the IL-1 receptor in malignant cells, along with preclinical and clinical studies targeting this pathway in AML. Second, we discuss the mechanisms regulating the release of mature IL-1β through the activation of different inflammasomes. Inflammasomes, particularly NLRP3, are emerging as key contributors to AML pathophysiology. Beyond IL-1 release, NLRP3 may interface with cellular stress responses and pyroptosis, thereby influencing both AML cells and their microenvironment through multiple mechanisms. Inflammasome signaling may act as a driver of therapy resistance while also representing a promising therapeutic target.
