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 promyelocyte (PML)-retinoic acid receptor alpha (RARalpha) fusion gene results from a t(15;17) chromosome translocation in acute promyelocytic leukaemia. We have analysed the oncogenic potential of the human fusion PML-RARalpha product in chicken using retrovirus vectors. We show that PML-RARalpha transforms very early haematopoietic progenitor cells in vitro and induces acute leukaemias. Neither PML nor RARalpha domains alone achieve such a transformation. The PML-RARalpha viruses recovered from the transformed cells carry two point mutations in the PML domain, one of which alters both the pattern of intracellular localization of the fusion protein and its functional interference with AP-1, thus defining an essential domain in PML for oncogenic transformation.
