Cardiac hypertrophy in polycythemia vera: A case report and review of literature.
Article in World journal of cardiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe combination of polycythemia vera (PV) with pathological cardiac hypertrophy is uncommon. In this study, we describe a case of PV accompanied by pathological cardiac hypertrophy. It is hypothesized that the pronounced cardiac hypertrophy in this patient has a strong connection with PV. CASE SUMMARY: In 2021, a 34-year-old Chinese man experienced chest constriction, shortness of breath, and palpitations during vigorous activity. Each episode lasted several minutes and resolved spontaneously following cessation of vigorous activity. He occasionally experienced syncope and vertigo without a headache. He underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and was diagnosed with "hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM)". He was discharged after receiving symptomatic treatment, which resulted in an improvement. He presented to our department with chest constriction, shortness of breath, and respiratory distress for one month while climbing to the second floor in 2023. His blood pressure was 180/100 mmHg at the time of admittance, and he was receiving antihypertensive treatment. He had a history of PV for 2 years without treatment. Symptomatic treatment was implemented concurrently with the administration of hydroxyurea upon admission. Good blood pressure control was observed during the long-term follow-up, and echocardiography did not reveal any progression of myocardial hypertrophy.
conclusionClinicians managing PV patients should remain highly vigilant regarding the risks of thrombosis and cardiovascular complications, particularly in those with refractory hypertension.
