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

Despite widespread use of Pegylated forms of Inteferon in the management of Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPN), most clinicians have experience predominantly with peginterferon alfa-2a (Pegasys). Third generation pegylated IFNα, ropeginterferon alfa-2b (ropegIFN; Besremi), was recommended by the European Medicine Authority (EMA) for treatment of Polycythaemia Vera (PV) following a Phase III trial (PROUD-PV / CONTINUATION-PV). FDA approval for PV, regardless of treatment history, was subsequently granted in November 2021. We hereby demonstrate the safety and tolerability of ropegIFN in a series of MPN patients at variable doses. It corroborates reports of efficacy of ropegIFN in patients with PV and use in pregnancy.
