Thrombopoietin Measurement as a Key Component in the Evaluation of Pediatric Thrombocytosis.
Article in Pediatric blood & cancer, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
JAK2, MPL, and CALR mutations, which underlie essential thrombocythemia (ET) in most adults, are infrequent in children. Consequently, additional tests are needed to confirm pediatric ET diagnoses. We report a child with suspected ET and normal JAK2, MPL, and CALR analyses. Serum thrombopoietin (TPO) was markedly elevated, leading to analysis of the TPO gene, TPHO, which contains an upstream open reading frame (uORF) known to repress THPO translation. Sequencing revealed a de novo, germline stopgain mutation in the uORF, explaining the elevated TPO and thrombocytosis. This finding suggests that screening TPO levels and, if elevated, THPO 5' UTR sequencing could be diagnostic.
