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 heterogeneous hematologic malignancy characterized by a block of differentiation and uncontrolled expansion of myeloid progenitor cells. Standard treatment includes intensive induction chemotherapy, typically with cytarabine and anthracycline, followed by consolidation chemotherapy or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. However, these approaches are often associated with relapse and treatment-related toxicity. Accumulating evidence highlights a critical role for epigenetic dysregulation in driving disease initiation, progression, and therapeutic resistance. In this review, we examine an integrated framework of epigenetic regulation in AML, encompassing DNA methylation, histone post-translational modifications, chromatin remodeling, and RNA-mediated epigenetics. We discuss how alterations in key epigenetic regulators, such as DNMT3A, TET2, IDH1/2, EZH2, and histone-modifying enzymes, reshape the transcriptional and epigenetic landscape of leukemic cells. Particular emphasis is placed on epigenetically defined AML subtypes, including
