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

Myelofibrosis (MF) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm frequently complicated by splenomegaly, with vascular abnormalities, such as splenic artery aneurysm (SAA), rarely reported. We herein report a 74-year-old woman with secondary MF harboring a JAK2 V617F mutation who developed SAA requiring intervention because of its potential risk of rupture. Ruxolitinib therapy markedly reduced splenomegaly and improved constitutional symptoms, thereby optimizing hemodynamic conditions and overall status for safe spleen-preserving coil embolization. This case highlights the potential relationship between MF and aneurysm formation while demonstrating that concomitant Janus kinase inhibitor therapy may facilitate safe endovascular treatment in select patients.
