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
backgroundThe human platelet alloantigens (HPA) HPA-1a and HPA-5b are located on glycoproteins on the platelet surface and are the most relevant to cause neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (NAIT). The antigens are defined by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the glycoprotein genes, and the antigen status can be determined by genotyping the SNPs. However, genotyping is time-consuming and costly depending on the method and sample throughput. Here, we tested the reliability of the evanescence wave based fluorescence (EVA) biosensor technology for the rapid phenotyping of the HPA-1a and HPA-5b antigens on blood donor samples in two laboratories.
methodsHPA-1a and HPA-5b phenotyping was performed on EDTA blood samples from 336 blood donors (Lyon: 216 donors; Mannheim: 120 donors) using EVA typing assays and the biosensor system (Davos Diagnostics, Davos, Switzerland). For genotyping, validated PCR-SSP and TaqMan-PCR methods were used.
resultsHPA-1a phenotyping was positive for all samples with HPA-1aa (n = 244; EVA value 807 ± 167 U/s) and HPA-1ab (n = 82; 542 ± 110 U/s) genotypes. All samples (n = 10) with negative EVA values (<10 U/s) had the HPA-1bb genotype. HPA-5b phenotyping was negative for all HPA-5aa genotypes (n = 267) and positive for the HPA-5ab (n = 66; 83 ± 22 U/s) and HPA-5bb (n = 3; 118 ± 25 U/s) genotypes. EVA values from heterozygotes were significantly lower compared to HPA-1a or HPA-5b homozygotes. A strong correlation of the EVA values with the platelet count in the blood samples was observed.
conclusionEVA is a reliable method for rapid phenotyping of the clinically relevant HPA-1a and HPA-5b platelet antigens. All phenotyping results were 100% concordant with the HPA-1 or HPA-5 genotype. The test can be performed from only 10 µl of fresh or frozen blood samples within less than 15 min time-to-result.
