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

Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are clonal hematologic disorders characterized by proliferation of one or more myeloid lineages. Data from large-scale prospective studies in Japan remain limited. We conducted a multicenter, prospective observational study (MPN-15) for the Japanese Society of Hematology to assess clinical characteristics, mutation profiles, risk stratification, and treatment patterns of patients diagnosed with polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), prefibrotic primary myelofibrosis (pre-PMF), and fibrotic PMF after 2016. A total of 1252 patients were enrolled (PV: 323; ET: 726; MF: 203). JAK2V617F mutations were detected in 96.8% of PV patients and approximately 60% of patients with other subtypes; CALR and MPL mutations were more common in ET, pre-PMF, and fibrotic PMF. Chromosomal abnormalities and symptom burden were highest in fibrotic PMF. Thrombotic and survival risk stratification revealed that most patients with PV and ET were high risk. Use of ruxolitinib was reported in 14% of PV and 34% of fibrotic PMF patients, with no serious adverse events. This study represents the first large-scale prospective MPN registry in Japan. Ongoing follow-up will provide critical insights into long-term outcomes and therapeutic optimization in the Japanese population.
