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

Polycythemia vera (PV) is 1 of the 3 Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms. Clinically, PV is an indolent disease, but its course can be complicated by arterial and venous vascular incidents, evolution to myelofibrosis, or leukemic transformation. Treatment of PV is therefore aimed at preventing such acute complications. The cornerstone of therapy of low-risk patients remains strict control of cardiovascular risk factors, the use of phlebotomy, and low-dose aspirin. Higher-risk patients should also receive cytoreductive treatments. Hydroxyurea and interferon α represent standard first-line options for newly diagnosed high-risk PV patients. Recommendations for patients whose disease fails to respond to these therapies are less clearly defined. The discovery of a mutation in the Janus kinase (JAK) 2 gene (V617F) in almost all cases of PV has prompted the development of molecularly targeted agents for the treatment of these patients. In this review, we discuss key clinical aspects, the current therapeutic armamentarium, and data on the use of novel agents in patients with PV.
