⚠ Evidence note: Direct MPN evidence on lifestyle factors is limited; this synthesis draws heavily on adjacent literature.
Diet and Nutrition
Current understanding
Anti-inflammatory diet plausibility; iron management for PV; Mediterranean diet adjacent evidence.
Evidence log
- 2026-09-03 — Targeting Thrombopoietin/MPL Signaling to Mitigate JAK2V617F-Driven Cardiac Microvascular Disease.: Preclinical work shows JAK2V617F-mutant hematopoiesis drives cardiac microvascular disease specifically under cardiometabolic stress (via endocardial TPO/MPL signaling), offering mechanistic plausibility that diet-modifiable cardiometabolic burden may amplify MPN cardiac risk — no direct dietary intervention was tested. [mechanism-plausible] (novelty: 4)
- 2026-03-10 — An Optimal Dose Finding Study of N-Acetylcysteine in Patients With Myeloproliferative Neoplasms: A phase I/II dose-finding trial of N-acetylcysteine in MPN patients is underway, providing the first formal MPN-specific clinical evaluation of this antioxidant supplement; see dedicated NAC page for details. [mpn-direct] (novelty: 3)
- 2026-03-27 — Curcumin to Improve Inflammation and Symptoms in Patients With Clonal Cytopenia of Undetermined Significance, Low Risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome, and Myeloproliferative Neoplasms: An ongoing phase II trial is evaluating curcumin (C3 complex/Bioperine) supplementation for reducing inflammation and symptom burden in CCUS, low-risk MDS, and MPN patients; results pending, so current status is mechanism-plausible with a trial-in-progress flag rather than mpn-direct evidence. [mechanism-plausible] (novelty: 3)
