Efficacy of Intraoperative Blood Salvage in Cerebral Aneurysm Surgery.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundThe use and effectiveness of intraoperative cell salvage has been analyzed in many surgical specialties. Until now, no data exist evaluating the efficacy of intraoperative cell salvage in cerebral aneurysm surgery.
aimTo evaluate the efficacy and cost effectiveness of intraoperative cell salvage in cerebral aneurysm surgery.
methodsData were collected retrospectively for all the patients who underwent cerebral aneurysm surgery at our institution between 2013 and 2019. Routinely, we apply blood salvage through autotransfusion. The cases were divided into a ruptured cerebral aneurysm group and a unruptured cerebral aneurysm group.
resultsA total of 241 patients underwent cerebral aneurysm clipping. Of all the cerebral aneurysms, 116 were ruptured and 125 were unruptured and clipped electively. Age, location of the aneurysm, postoperative red blood cell count, intraoperative blood loss, and number of allogenic blood cell transfusions were statistically significantly different between the groups. The autotransfusion of salvaged blood could only be facilitated in eight cases with ruptured cerebral aneurysms and in none with unruptured cerebral aneurysms clipped electively (
conclusionsThe use of cell salvage in patients with unruptured cerebral aneurysm, undergoing elective surgery, is not effective.
