1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Immune platelet destruction is a significant cause for platelet refractoriness. The platelet crossmatch-a solid phase red cell adherence assay utilizes donor platelets and patient serum to assess compatibility and appears to be a feasible option in resource constrained settings. This study was done to evaluate the frequency of platelet crossmatch positivity among Paediatric Oncohaematology patients and also to assess whether a positive crossmatch is predictive of unsuccessful platelet transfusions in this group of patients. Paediatric Oncohaematology patients who received platelet transfusions between March 2013 and September 2013 were included in the study. The pre-transfusion patient sample and a segment from the transfused donor unit were used for performing the platelet crossmatch. A blood sample was collected one hour after the transfusion to assess post-transfusion platelet count. Corrected count increment (CCI) was calculated using the standard formula. CCI ≤ 7500/µL/m
