1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Automated quantitation of marrow fibrosis promises to improve fibrosis assessment in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). However, analysis of reticulin-stained images is complicated by technical challenges within laboratories and variability between institutions. Methods: We have developed a machine learning model that can quantitatively assess fibrosis directly from H&E-stained bone marrow trephine tissue sections. Results: Our haematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-based fibrosis quantitation model demonstrates comparable performance to an existing reticulin-stained model (Continuous Indexing of Fibrosis [CIF]) while benefitting from the improved tissue retention and staining characteristics of H&E-stained sections. Conclusions: H&E-derived quantitative marrow fibrosis has potential to augment routine practice and clinical trials while supporting the emerging field of spatial multi-omic analysis.
