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

Transcription factors (TFs) orchestrating lineage-development often control genes required for cellular survival. However, it is not well understood how cells survive when such TFs are lost, for example in cancer. PU.1 is an essential TF for myeloid fate, and mice with downregulated PU.1 levels develop acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Combining a multi-omics approach with a functional genetic screen, we reveal that PU.1-downregulated cells fundamentally change their survival control from cytokine-driven pathways to overexpression of an autophagy-predominated stem cell gene program, for which we also find evidence in human AML. Control of this program involves redirected chromatin occupancy of the PU.1 partner TF Runx1 to a lineage-inappropriate binding site repertoire. Hence, genomic reallocation of TF binding upon loss of a partner TF can act as a pro-oncogenic failsafe mechanism by sustaining cell survival during leukemogenesis.
