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

Low-dose acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) is given to most patients with polycythemia vera (PV) and essential thrombocythemia (ET) although some uncertainties encompass this clinical practice. In patients with history of thrombosis, the use of ASA is supported on the results observed in the general population showing a substantial net benefit of this treatment in preventing thrombosis. In the European collaboration study on low-dose aspirin in polycythemia vera (ECLAP), ASA reduced the risk of thrombosis without increasing the risk of major bleeding when compared with placebo, supporting the primary prevention of thrombosis in PV. In ET, the efficacy of low-dose ASA has not been tested in randomized clinical trials. Two retrospective studies have shown that low-dose ASA could benefit ET patients older than 60 years when combined with cytoreduction, whereas in young, low-risk patients, ASA benefits to particular subgroups of patients. In spite of the fact that in primary myelofibrosis the incidence of thrombosis is increased, the use of ASA is not clearly recommended.
