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

Transposable elements (TEs) constitute over half of the human genome and have played a profound role in genome evolution. While most TEs have lost the ability to transpose, many retain functional elements that serve as drivers of genome innovation, including the emergence of novel genes and regulatory elements. Recent advances in experimental and bioinformatic methods have provided new insights into their roles in human biology, both in health and disease. In this review, we discuss the multifaceted roles of TEs in haematopoiesis, highlighting their contributions to both normal and pathological contexts. TEs influence gene regulation by reshaping gene-regulatory networks, modulating transcriptional activity, and creating novel regulatory elements. These activities play key roles in maintaining normal haematopoietic processes and supporting cellular regeneration. However, in haematological malignancies, TE reactivation can disrupt genomic integrity, induce structural variations, and dysregulate transcriptional programmes, thereby driving oncogenesis. By examining the impact of TE activity on genome regulation and variation, we highlight their pivotal roles in both normal haematopoietic processes and haematological cancers.
