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

Myeloproliferative neoplasms are characterized by mutations in JAK2, MPL and CALR genes. Commonly in diagnostics and previous studies mainly sequencing and common PCR techniques under conventional detection limits are used.Splanchnic vein thromboses are rare, but often appear associated with myeloproliferative neoplasms and represent serious complications.Herein, blood from patients with abdominal vein thromboses in Mecklenburg-West Pomerania (federal district of northern Germany), included in an ongoing prospective prevalence study, was analyzed by next generation sequencing representing the complete protein coding regions of JAK2, MPL and CALR genes with a coverage of > 2000 reads, therefore an ultradeep targeting approach.JAK2 V617F mutations were detected in 11/44 patients. In four of these cases allele frequencies ranged below the conventional cut off of 2%. MPL W515R was detected in 3/44 cases in low frequencies.Very low allele frequencies of JAK2 and MPL variants in patients with abdominal vein thromboses may indicate early manifestations of myeloproliferative neoplasms.
