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

aimTo perform an indirect treatment comparison of safety outcomes between the Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors momelotinib and fedratinib in patients with myelofibrosis.

methodsAdverse events (AEs) for JAK inhibitor - naive and - experienced populations occurring in ≥ 10% of patients treated with momelotinib (SIMPLIFY-1/SIMPLIFY-2/MOMENTUM) or fedratinib (JAKARTA/JAKARTA-2) in phase 2/3 trials were evaluated using matching-adjusted indirect comparisons.

resultsRisk of any-grade or grade 3/4 anemia, diarrhea, nausea, and treatment-emergent AEs leading to dose reductions was lower with momelotinib in both populations; any-grade thrombocytopenia was also significantly less likely in JAK inhibitor - naive patients.

conclusionsMomelotinib showed a favorable safety profile vs fedratinib, including significantly lower risks of key hematologic and gastrointestinal AEs - such as anemia, diarrhea, and nausea - over 24 weeks.
