Splenectomy unveils thrombocytosis in underlying myeloproliferative neoplasms with extrahepatic portal vein obstruction.

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
Extrahepatic portal vein obstruction (EHPVO) is a rare disease with myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) as the most common cause. We report that hypersplenic hematologic changes in EHPVO might be eliminated by MPN. Through experience with splenectomy for variceal control with EHPVO, we suspected that spleen might mask MPN-induced thrombocytosis, and that MPN might have a significant influence on excessive thrombocytosis after splenectomy. To clarify the influence of MPN and spleen on platelet trends, we conducted a retrospective hospital database analysis, evaluating 8 EHPVO patients with splenectomy (2 males, 6 females; from 17 years to 64 years, mean 38.3 years). Three (37.5%) of 8 were diagnosed as MPN by JAK2V617F mutation. The perioperative serum platelet counts in EHPVO without MPN were 10.5, 35.4, and 36.6 (x10
