Splenic infarction secondary to polycythemia Vera: Case report and literature review.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Splenic infarction is a medical condition characterized by compromised blood flow to the spleen, resulting in partial or complete organ infarction. This condition is commonly observed in patients with an increased risk of thrombosis, such as those with Polycythemia Vera (PV). A 40-year-old female patient presented with fatigue, weakness, and an enlarged spleen, further tests revealed elevated levels of hemoglobin, white blood cells, and platelets. A bone marrow biopsy and positive Jack II mutations confirmed the diagnosis of PV. The patient later developed portal hypertension, varices, and splenic infarction. This case report aims to raise awareness about the potential complications of PV and emphasizes the importance of early intervention to prevent serious consequences such as splenic infarction. Additionally, it highlights the role of splenectomy in managing complications associated with PV.
