Function of Hemoglobin-Based Oxygen Carriers: Determination of Methemoglobin Content by Spectral Extinction Measurements.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Suspensions of hemoglobin microparticles (HbMPs) are promising tools as oxygen therapeutics. For the approval of clinical studies extensive characterization of these HbMPs with a size of about 750 nm is required regarding physical properties, function, pharmaco-kinetics and toxicology. The standard absorbance measurements in blood gas analyzers require dissolution of red blood cells which does not work for HbMP. Therefore, we have developed a robust and rapid optical method for the quality and functionality control of HbMPs. It allows simultaneous determination of the portion of the two states of hemoglobin oxygenated hemoglobin (oxyHb) and deoxygenated hemoglobin (deoxyHb) as well as the content of methemoglobin (metHb). Based on the measurement of collimated transmission spectra between 300 nm and 800 nm, the average extinction cross section of HbMPs is derived. A numerical method is applied to determine the composition of the HbMPs based on their wavelength-dependent refractive index (RI), which is a superposition of the three different states of Hb. Thus, light-scattering properties, including extinction cross sections can be simulated for different compositions and sizes. By comparison to measured spectra, the relative concentrations of oxyHb, deoxyHb, metHb are accessible. For validation of the optically determined composition of the HbMPs, we used X-ray fluorescence spectrometry for the ratio of Fe(II) (oxyHb/deoxyHb) and Fe(III) (metHb). High accuracy density measurements served to access heme-free proteins, size was determined by dynamic light scattering and analytical centrifugation and the shape of the HbMPs was visualized by electron and atomic force microscopy.
