Retrospective cohort studies of repeat donors reveal donor-dependent variability in the recovery of transfused platelets.
Trial report in Transfusion, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 in vivo recovery of transfused platelets is variable and often unpredictable. Although many recipient-dependent factors are well described, donor-dependent variables remain poorly understood. STUDY DESIGN AND
methodsTo explore donor-dependent variables we conducted 2 retrospective studies of platelet transfusion outcomes in repeat donors. One study analyzed multiple autologous, radiolabeled platelet transfusions, and a second study analyzed multiple clinical platelet transfusions from a small cohort of repeat donors.
resultsIn 36 subjects, multiple within-subject determinations of recovery and survival of radiolabeled autologous platelets revealed a relative consistency in platelet recoveries within donors compared to the range of recoveries among donors. Intraclass correlation coefficients for platelet recovery were 43% to 93%. In 524 ABO-compatible clinical platelet transfusions derived from seven donors, a linear mixed-effects model revealed significant donor-dependent differences in corrected count increments for units stored for 4 or 5 days.
conclusionsThese two studies indicate reproducible donor-dependent differences in transfused platelet recovery, suggesting a possible heritable influence on the quality of transfused platelets.
