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
introductionPregnant women negative for human platelet antigen 1a (HPA-1a) are at risk of alloimmunization with fetal HPA-1a antigen inherited from the father, and their offspring may develop fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT). The aim of this study was to analyze the frequency of HPA-1a alloimmunization in pregnant Polish women, the feasibility of using maternal platelets for intrauterine transfusions in women subjected to diagnostic fetal blood sampling (FBS) and to discuss potential consequences of alloimmunization. MATERIAL AND
methodsFifteen thousand two hundred and four pregnant women were typed for HPA-1a; HPA-1a negative were screened for anti-HPA-1a. Alloimmunized women received specialist perinatology care; some of them were subjected to FBS, followed by transfusion of HPA-1a negative platelet concentrates (PC) prepared from maternal blood.
resultsThree hundred seventy-three (2.5%) women were HPA-1a negative, and 32 (8.6%) tested positively for anti-HPA-1a. Antibodies were detected in 22 women during pregnancy. Diagnostic FBS followed by PC transfusion was performed in 14 woman, who were platelet donors for their 16 unborn babies. Blood donations were tolerated well by the patients, and also intrauterine platelet transfusions were uneventful. Pharmacotherapy with intravenous immunoglobulins was implemented in 11/22 patients.
conclusionsHPA-1a negative women (ca. 2.5% of all pregnant patients) are at risk of alloimmunization with HPA-1a antigen and developing FNAIT. Alloimmunized women can be donors of platelets for their offspring providing removal of antibodies from PC. Owing to potential complications, special care should be taken if an alloimmunized woman was qualified as a blood or stem cell recipient.
