Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In around 90% of the patients with MPNs, an acquired mutation that promotes JAK/STAT signaling is identified \[3, 4\]. The JAK/STAT pathway transduces signals from cytokines including erythropoietin, thrombopoietin, and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor.24 A point mutation that activates JAK2, JAK2V617F, is present in around 95% of patients with PV and 40% to 60% of patients with ET and MF

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

All patients will be subjected to a thorough assessment of history, complete clinical examination, and investigations as complete blood picture including neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio which will be analyzed with automated blood count analyzers, serum uric acid, serum creatinine and lipid profile. All patients will undergo carotid imaging using Colour Doppler ultrasonography for assessment of carotid plaque burden.

The control group will undergo carotid ultrasonography who will be recruited among apparently healthy volunteers aiming to match the patient group regarding age, sex and classical risk factors for atherosclerosis as arterial hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, smoking or obesity.
