Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) evolves from Philadelphia chromosome-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) with unexpected frequency.
Review in International journal of hematology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) are chronic clonal disorders characterized by overproduction of myeloid-lineage blood cells and potential risk of evolution to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is distinct from other MPNs in that its pathophysiology stems from the BCR-ABL fusion protein of the Philadelphia chromosome (Ph +). Though there are known cases of Ph- and Ph + MPNs coexisting in a single patient, overall prevalence has never been quantified in a prospective cohort. Here, we review our center's MPN registry, which shows 0.6% of Ph- MPN patients later developed CML. This development occurred no less than 10 and up to 36 years after Ph- MPN diagnosis. This rate of chronic transformation exceeds what is expected, as the incidence of CML in the United States is 2 per 100,000 people-years. The probability of this CML case rate in an average-risk population is less than 0.001%, suggesting there are shared risk factors between Ph- and Ph + MPNs. We speculate that these risk factors may include exposures, genetic predispositions, or be inherent to disease biology. Abrupt-onset leukocytosis heralded post-MPN CML in all cases here and suggests this salient clinical feature should trigger hematologists to consider this diagnosis and perform appropriate testing.
