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

Anemia is a condition in which red blood cells or the hemoglobin in the blood is lower than in healthy people. Red blood cells transport and supply oxygen needed to various organs in the human body. Anemia is caused by hypoxemia due to the lack of red blood cells and causes other serious health problems, such as heart problems, pregnancy complications, severe fatigue, or death. There are many causes of anemia, and it can be diagnosed by measuring hematocrit or hemoglobin levels in the blood. Even though there are various diagnostic devices on the market, these devices are inconvenient because their systems are bulky, heavy, expensive, or inaccurate. This study proposed a new anemia diagnostic system based on the impedance measurement of red blood cells. The proposed system consists of a test strip that collects a blood sample from the finger and a hemoglobin meter that measures the impedance of the blood and converts it into the concentration of hemoglobin. The proposed test strip that does not contain enzymes or reagents was designed in accordance with class 1 approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The hemoglobin meter was designed to include a hardware block, an algorithm block and a calibration block through empirical work. We also compared it to reference impedance to prove the accuracy of the hemoglobin meter. The experimental results with human blood indicated the superiority of the anemia diagnostic system. As a result, the overall standard deviation of impedance measurements was less than 1%, and the coefficient of variance of the proposed system was 1.7%, which was better than that of other commercial systems.
