Janus Kinase-2 Mutation Associated Portal Vein Thrombosis Complicating Liver Cirrhosis and Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundPortal vein thrombosis (PVT) might be a catastrophic event complicating liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
aimrole of JAK2 RS V617F mutation as a risk factor for PVT development in liver cirrhosis and HCC.
methodsA case control study conducted on 100 PVT patients (76 HCC and 24 liver cirrhosis) additionally, 100 healthy individuals used as a control group. PVT was diagnosed incidentally by Doppler ultrasound during routine follow-up HCC screening. Prothrombin G20210A mutation, MTHFR mutation, Factor V Leiden mutation (VFL), antithrombin III (ATIII), protein C, S, and antiphospholipid antibodies, along with JAK2 RS V617F mutation by real-time polymerase chain reaction all were analyzed.
resultsPatients with PVT were significantly older (p <0.001), thrombocytopenic (p <0.001), with high alkaline phosphatase (p <0.001). JAK2 RS V617F mutation was found in 28/100 (28%) in idiopathic PVT complicating liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Cases with positive JAK2 rs V617F mutation were significantly accompanied by protein S deficiency (P 0.03), LA absence (p 0.06), and high frequency of ascites (P 0.03). While, the MTHFR heterozygous mutation (p0.001), ATIII (P 0.02), and VFL (P 0.01) were more frequent with negative JAK2 rs V617F mutation. The comparison between demographic data and thrombophilic parameters in PVT cases revealed that no significant differences were recorded except for male gender, Diabetes Mellitus, splenomegaly significantly increased among HCC cases (p <0.05).
conclusionsJAK2 rs V617F mutation must be considered in any case of PVT with liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma without identified thrombophilic risk factors, with potential considerations of evolving myeloproliferative disorders. New diagnostic and therapeutic implications are still awaited.
