Retention of hemostatic and immunological properties of frozen plasma and COVID-19 convalescent apheresis fresh-frozen plasma produced and freeze-dried in Canada.
Article in Transfusion, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundRandomized clinical trial data show that early plasma transfusion may save lives among trauma patients. Supplying plasma in remote environments is logistically challenging. Freeze-dried plasma (FDP) offers a possible solution. STUDY DESIGN AND
methodsA Terumo BCT plasma freeze-drying system was evaluated. We compared pooled frozen plasma (FP) units with derived Terumo BCT FDP (TFDP) units and pooled COVID-19 convalescent apheresis fresh-frozen plasma (CC-AFFP) with derived CC-TFDP units. Parameters measured were: coagulation factors (F) II; V; VII; VIII; IX; XI; XIII; fibrinogen; Proteins C (PC) and S (PS); antithrombin (AT); α
resultsMost parameters were unchanged in TFDP versus FP or differed ≤15%. Mean aPTT, PT, C3a, and pH were elevated 5.9%, 6.9%, 64%, and 0.28 units, respectively, versus FP. CC-TFDP showed no loss of SARS-CoV-2 neutralization titer versus CC-AFFP and no mean signal loss in most pools by viral protein immunoassays.
conclusionChanges in protein activities or clotting times arising from freeze-drying were <15%. Although C3a levels in TFDP were elevated, they were less than literature values for transfusable plasma. SARS-CoV-2-neutralizing antibody titers and viral protein binding levels were largely unaffected by freeze-drying. In vitro characteristics of TFDP or CC-TFDP were comparable to their originating plasma, making future clinical studies appropriate.
