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.

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.

Abstract

Background: Aquagenic pruritus (AP) is a common and distressing symptom in myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) patients. Methods: This study assessed cytoreductive therapy effectiveness using data from 489 patients in the OBENE Observatory (NCT02897297). AP severity was tracked regularly after diagnosis. Results: Ruxolitinib and hydroxycarbamide reduced AP by 52.9% and 60.7%, respectively, but 61.4% still experienced persistent symptoms. Anagrelide and pegylated interferon were less effective and occasionally worsened AP. No correlation was found between full hematological response and symptom relief. Conclusion: Despite treatment, AP remains prevalent, highlighting the need for targeted symptom management.
