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

We present two cases of concurrent development of essential thrombocythemia (ET) with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and one related to clonal B-cell lymphocytosis (CBL). Both patients were referred for lymphocytosis and thrombocytosis. A bone marrow biopsy revealed infiltration of small, mature lymphocytes and megakaryocytic hyperplasia. Flow cytometric immunophenotyping and immunoglobulin (IG) gene clonality tests revealed clonal B lymphocytes. Both patients were positive for the JAK2 V617F mutation in whole bone marrow aspirate. The JAK2 V617F mutation was present in isolated B lymphocytes of patient 1, but not patient 2. Cytogenetics were normal in both patients. An array comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) analyses of B cells revealed a gain of 4q28.3, which is reported in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, in patient 1, and deletion 22q11.22, which is associated with CLL, and a gain of Xp22.31 in patient 2. In both patients, B cells showed no myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN)-specific genetic abnormalities. These results suggest that different oncogenic mechanisms in each cell lineage may underlie the concurrent development of ET and CLL (or CBL). Array CGH may be helpful in identifying the pathogenic mechanism in cases of concurrent development of lymphoid neoplasm and MPN.
