Coagulation testing: Comparison of portable (CoaguChek
Article in Veterinary world, 2020. 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
BACKGROUND AND
aimThe CoaguChek MATERIALS AND
methodsBlood samples of 82 cats were collected from the jugular vein and PT was measured using both the CCX and an automated coagulation analyzer (ACA). Spearman's correlation was used to measure the strength and direction of association between the two analyzers, while limits of agreement were assessed utilizing Bland-Altman analysis.
resultsRange of PT using the CCX was 10.1-14.1 s. Correlation between the two analyzers was moderate but significant (r=0.3465, p=0.0014). Mean difference between CCX-PT and ACA-PT was 1.624 s and standard deviation was 0.890 with 95.1% of the samples falling within the limits of agreement.
conclusionThe CCX is a portable, easy to use coagulation analyzer that requires a small volume of blood and gives results within 1 min. Results showed moderate correlation and good agreement with a standard automated laboratory analyzer. The CCX can be used for screening coagulation testing when PT is in the normal range for cats. However, testing accuracy of the CCX in abnormal PT cats should be further investigated before diagnostic coagulopathy applications.
