A Case Report of Ropeginterferon Alfa-2b for Polycythemia Vera during Pregnancy.
Article in Hematology reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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) such as essential thrombocythemia (ET) and polycythemia vera (PV) are rare during pregnancy. However, they are harmful because they are associated with an increased risk of thromboembolic, hemorrhagic, or microcirculatory disturbances or placental dysfunction leading to fetal growth restriction or loss. Low-dose aspirin and low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) are recommended to reduce pregnancy complications, and interferon (IFN) is the only treatment option for cytoreductive therapy based on the likelihood of live birth in pregnant women with MPN. Since ropeginterferon alfa-2b is the only available IFN in South Korea, we present a case report of ropeginterferon alfa-2b use during pregnancy in an MPN patient. A 40-year-old woman who had been diagnosed with low-risk PV in 2017 and had been maintained on phlebotomy, hydroxyurea (HU), and anagrelide (ANA) for 4 years was confirmed as 5 weeks pregnant on 9 December 2021. After stopping treatment with HU and ANA, the patient showed a rapid increase in platelet count (1113 × 10
