Plasma Isolation in a Syringe by Conformal Integration of Inertial Microfluidics.
Article in Annals of biomedical engineering, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
A thermoplastic microfluidic substrate is conformally integrated onto the cylindrical barrel of a conventional venipuncture syringe, forming a spiral inertial separation element supporting the isolation of plasma from diluted whole blood. The cylindrical shape of the syringe itself serves to define the flow path required for inertial separation by transforming a linear microchannel to a spiral topology. The hybrid system enables inertial plasma separation by Dean flow focusing within the same syringe used for a patient blood draw, with the seamlessly interconnected microfluidic element operated by automated or manual actuation of the syringe plunger. Plasma isolation is achieved without the need for external instrumentation. Device design and fabrication challenges are discussed, and effective plasma isolation within the system is demonstrated, with a peak separation efficiency above 97% using 25 × diluted blood.
