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

backgroundPolycythemia vera (PV) is a chronic myeloproliferative disorder characterized by an increase in red blood cells in the peripheral blood. Previous work has reported the occurrence of thrombosis or hemorrhage arising in the cerebral vasculature secondary to PV. However, hemorrhagic transformation after PV-associated acute ischemic stroke has not been previously described. CASE SUMMARY: We herein present two cases of PV where hemorrhagic transformation occurred after an acute ischemic stroke. Case 1 was a 57-year-old woman with a history of hypertension who was admitted for left-sided weakness. Case 2 was a 68-year-old man who was admitted for a 10-d sudden left arm weakness. Imaging examinations for the two patients revealed hemorrhagic transformation after acute ischemic stroke. Both patients had JAK-2-V617F mutation and received antiplatelet therapy. Both of them had a good prognosis during the follow-up.

conclusionThis report suggested that hemorrhagic transformation may occur in acute ischemic stroke caused by PV. Antiplatelet drugs do not seem to influence the long-term outcomes in such patients. Future research should focus on establishing a standard antiplatelet treatment strategy for this condition.
