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

Polycythemia vera (PV) is a myeloid stem cell disorder characterized by excess red cell mass. The two major complications of PV are thrombosis and bleeding. Atrial fibrillation is a potentially devastating condition that can complicate the course of PV. We describe a case of a 65-year-old woman with PV who presented with new-onset atrial fibrillation. The atrial fibrillation was aborted successfully, and the patient was started on oral anticoagulation with rivaroxaban. PV with atrial fibrillation poses a challenge in management due to the risk of thrombosis and bleeding. Despite the lack of standard recommendations or guidelines, this case highlights that oral anticoagulation therapy can be safe and convenient for such patients.
