Clonal hematopoiesis with DNMT3A mutation is associated with lower white matter hyperintensity volume.

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
backgroundClonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) increases the risk of cerebrovascular events, while its association with cerebral white matter hyperintensity (WMH) is undemonstrated. We evaluated the effect of CHIP and its major driving mutations on cerebral WMH severity.
methodsFrom an institutional cohort of a routine health check-up program with a DNA repository database, subjects who were ≥50 years of age, with one or more cardiovascular risk factors but no central nervous system disorder, and performed brain MRI were included. Along with the presence of CHIP and its major driving mutations, clinical and laboratory data were obtained. WMH volume was measured in total, periventricular, and subcortical regions.
resultsAmong the total 964 subjects, 160 subjects were classified as CHIP positive group. CHIP was most frequently associated with DNMT3A mutation (48.8%), followed by TET2 (11.9%) and ASXL1 (8.1%) mutations. Linear regression analysis adjusting for age, sex, and conventional cerebrovascular risk factors suggested that CHIP with DNMT3A mutation was associated with the lower log-transformed total WMH volume, unlike other CHIP mutations. When classified according to variant allele fraction (VAF) value of DNMT3A mutation, higher VAF classes were associated with the lower log-transformed total WMH and the lower log-transformed periventricular WMH volume, but not with the log-transformed subcortical WMH volumes.
conclusionsClonal hematopoiesis with DNMT3A mutation is quantitatively associated with a lower volume of cerebral WMH, especially in the periventricular region. CHIP with DNMT3A mutation might have a protective role in the endothelial pathomechanism of WMH.
