Clinical and Laboratory Characterization of Acquired Von Willebrand Syndrome.
Article in American journal of hematology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Acquired von Willebrand Syndrome (AVWS) is a rare bleeding disorder characterized by quantitative or qualitative defects of von Willebrand factor (VWF) in patients without a personal or family history of bleeding. It is frequently associated with systemic diseases, particularly lymphoproliferative disorders (LPDs) and myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). In this single-center, retrospective cross-sectional study, we included patients diagnosed with AVWS at the Angelo Bianchi Bonomi Hemophilia and Thrombosis Center between April 2014 and March 2025. Bleeding severity was assessed using the ISTH-BAT score. Laboratory tests included FVIII:C, VWF:Ag, VWF:GPIbR, VWF:RCo, VWF:CB, VWFpp, and multimer analysis. Among 140 patients, 106 (76%) had MPNs and 26 (19%) LPDs. At least one bleeding symptom was observed in 70% of patients, with clinically significant bleeding occurring in 24% of the cohort. Clinically relevant bleeding (mainly mucocutaneous and gastrointestinal) was more frequent and severe in LPDs (58%) than in MPNs (13%). LPDs showed severe VWF functional defects, marked HMWM loss, and elevated VWFpp/VWF:Ag ratios (median 6.7), consistent with accelerated clearance. MPNs displayed mild HMWM reduction, normal clearance (median VWFpp/VWF:Ag ratio 1.0), and an inverse correlation between platelet count and the degree of HMWM depletion (ρ = -0.48, p < 0.001). Bleeding severity correlated inversely with VWF:GPIbR in LPDs (ρ = -0.50, p = 0.02) and with VWF:RCo in MPNs. Anti-VWF antibodies were found in 30% of tested LPDs or autoimmune cases. The two main phenotypes presented in AVWS were immune-mediated in LPDs and platelet-mediated in MPNs. Understanding the underlying mechanism is crucial for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment to reduce bleeding risk and improve outcomes.
