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

backgroundMitochondrial metabolism-driven epigenetic modifications have emerged as crucial regulators for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) progression, linking metabolic activity in leukemic stem cells to epigenetically controlled transcriptional programs that drive oncogenic gene expression.

resultsHere, by integrating proteomic and transcriptomic data, we identified six genes whose expression were able to predict outcome in AML. Among these, IDH3B was highly expressed in leukemic stem cells and associated with poor prognosis. Functional studies revealed that IDH3B deletion in KMT2A-rearranged AML increased global protein succinylation, reduced acetylation, and sensitized cells to the menin-KMT2A inhibitor, both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, loss of IDH3B, by increasing histone succinylation and reducing H3K79 methylation at the MYC promoter, amplified Revumenib-induced transcriptional repression of MYC.

conclusionsThese findings establish IDH3B as a key metabolic-epigenetic regulator in AML and highlight it as a potential synergistic target to enhance menin inhibition therapy.
