Clonal hematopoiesis JAKs up plaque formation.
Article in The Journal of clinical investigation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) is a condition in which hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) acquire mutations seen in leukemia. While individuals with CH generally do not show signs of hematologic disease, the condition becomes more common with age and correlates with age-related diseases, especially cardiovascular disease (CVD). JAK2 mutations in HSCs can lead to CH and correlate with atherosclerosis, but the condition has been difficult to study because of challenges modeling the mutant cells at very low frequency. In this issue of the JCI, Liu et al. developed a low-allele-burden (LAB) mouse model in which a small number of bone marrow cells carrying the Jak2VF mutation were transplanted into mice predisposed to hyperlipidemia. Along with recapitulating features of plaque development, the authors identified the phagocytic receptors MERTK and TREM2 in WT cells as downstream of the inflammatory cytokine IL-1. These findings provide potential targets for preventing or treating patients at risk for CH-associated CVD.
