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.
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
Hyperkinetic Jak2 tyrosine kinase signaling has been implicated in several hematological disorders, including myeloproliferative neoplasms. Effective Jak2 inhibitors can have significant therapeutic potential. Here, using structure-based virtual screening, we identified a benzothiophene-derived Jak2 inhibitor named A46. We hypothesized that this compound would inhibit Jak2-V617F-mediated pathologic cell growth. To test this, A46 was analyzed for its ability to inhibit recombinant Jak2 protein catalysis; suppress Jak2-mediated pathogenic cell growth in vitro; inhibit the aberrant ex vivo growth of Jak2-V617F-expressing primary human bone marrow cells; and inhibit Jak2-mediated pathogenesis in vivo. To this end, we found that A46 selectively inhibited Jak2-V617F protein when compared to wild-type Jak2 protein. The drug also selectively inhibited the proliferation of Jak2-V617F-expressing cells in both a time- and dose-dependent manner, and this correlated with decreased Jak2 and signal transducers and activators of transcription 5 phosphorylation within treated cells. The Jak2-V617F cell growth inhibition correlated with an induction of cell cycle arrest and promotion of apoptosis. A46 also inhibited the pathologic growth of primary Jak2-V617F-expressing bone marrow cells ex vivo. Lastly, using a mouse model of Jak2-V617F-mediated myeloproliferative neoplasia. A46 significantly reduced the splenomegaly and megakaryocytic hyperplasia in the spleens of treated mice and the levels of interleukin-6 in the plasma. Collectively, our data demonstrate that the benzothiophene-based compound, A46, suppresses Jak2-mediated pathogenesis, thereby making it a potential candidate drug against Jak2-mediated disorders.
