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 driven by genetic and epigenetic alterations, where super-enhancers (SEs) play key oncogenic roles, representing promising therapeutic targets in AML. Through H3K27ac ChIP-seq profiling of 7 AML cell lines and 13 primary samples, we identified USP20 as the deubiquitinase that most frequently associated with super-enhancers. Public database analysis confirmed USP20 overexpression in AML and its correlation with adverse prognosis. Genetic knockdown of USP20 via shRNA significantly induced apoptosis and suppressed proliferation in AML cells
