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

Patients diagnosed with polycythemia vera (PV) or essential thrombocythemia (ET) sometimes suffer transformation of the disease into myelofibrosis (MF), which is associated with a poorer prognosis. This study investigated the prognostic value of the allele burden of JAK2V617F, a somatic driver mutation in these diseases, by comparing the allele burden between formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded bone marrow collected at initial diagnosis and peripheral blood from follow-up visits. Although the annual changes in the JAK2V617F allele burden were comparable between MF-transformed (n = 11) and untransformed (n = 23) patients, the burden was significantly increased in MF-transformed patients exhibiting a longer disease duration than untransformed patients. Furthermore, MF transformation was only observed in patients whose JAK2V617F allele burden exceeded the mean values for each disease (PV, 71.7 %; ET, 35.5 %) at initial diagnosis or during follow-up. Finally, we showed that hydroxycarbamide treatment exerted neither a preventive effect on MF transformation nor a suppressive effect on the increased JAK2V617F allele burden. In conclusion, a high JAK2V617F allele burden at initial diagnosis or during follow-up is predictive of MF transformation in PV and ET. Therefore, routine measurement of the JAK2V617F allele burden using an accurate assay system is recommended to predict MF transformation.
