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

backgroundAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients with Runt-related transcription factor 1 (RUNX1) mutations are categorized into the adverse-risk group with poor prognosis. However, the impact of RUNX1 mutations at distinct sites on clinical characteristics, chemosensitivity, and prognosis in AML remains incompletely defined. This study aims to elucidate this impact thereby furnishing robust evidence to refine precision therapeutic strategies for individuals harboring RUNX1-mutant AML.

methodsIn this study, 92 AML patients harboring RUNX1 mutation, were enrolled and stratified into five groups based on mutation location: RHD domain, TAD domain, ID domain, outside domain, and biallelic mutations. Baseline demographics, complete-remission (CR) rate and minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity rates after chemotherapy, as well as 2-year overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) were systematically compared.

resultsBiallelic-mutant patients exhibited the lowest CR rate, the highest 2-year relapse rate, and the poorest 2-year OS and EFS. Cox regression analysis identified single-site mutation as an independent favorable prognostic factor. Among patients harboring single-site RUNX1 mutation, ID-domain mutations group achieved the highest two-cycle CR and MRD negativity rates, whereas TAD-domain mutants displayed the lowest MRD-negativity rate.

conclusionsCollectively, these findings indicate that the specific locus of RUNX1 mutation modulates chemotherapy efficacy and outcome, providing critical insights for precision therapy in RUNX1mutant AML.
