Treatment of Myeloproliferative Neoplasms With Janus Kinase Inhibitors: A Meta-Analysis of Cardiovascular Safety.

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
Background: Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKis) are an integral aspect of the management of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). Part of the clinical benefit derived from JAKis may be due to reductions in thrombosis, a potentially life-threatening complication of MPNs. However, evidence has emerged of adverse cardiovascular effects secondary to JAKis. We conducted a first-of-a-kind meta-analysis of the cardiovascular safety of JAKis in the treatment of MPNs. Methods: This study was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA). Systematic searches for studies comparing JAKi treatment to a control group were conducted. Studies reporting hypertension, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and thromboembolic events were included in a meta-analysis using a random-effects model for the primary analysis, and fixed-effects model for any subgroup analyses performed. Results: A total of 23 publications, consisting of nine clinical trials and one retrospective analysis, met the inclusion criteria. This resulted in a pooled population of 2198 patients (JAKi Conclusion: This meta-analysis suggests that JAKi treatment of MPN was associated with a reduced risk of thromboembolic events; primarily driven by studies of ruxolitinib in PV and MF. Further prospective clinical trials are warranted to confirm these findings and characterise the cardiovascular profile of other JAKis and other types of MPNs.
