Polycythemia in dogs with chronic hypoxic pulmonary disease.
Article in Journal of veterinary internal medicine, 2022. 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
backgroundProlonged tissue hypoxia caused by chronic pulmonary disease is commonly regarded as an important mechanism in the development of secondary polycythemia, but little clinical data are available to support this hypothesis.
objectiveTo study the prevalence and severity of erythrocytosis accompanying chronic hypoxic pulmonary disease in dogs. ANIMALS: Forty-seven dogs with hypoxic chronic pulmonary disease, 27 dogs with nonhypoxic chronic pulmonary disease, and 60 healthy controls.
methodsDogs with chronic pulmonary disease and chronic hypoxemia (partial pressure of arterial oxygen [PaO
resultsRed blood cell parameters measured at the end of the hypoxemia period were within the laboratory reference range in most dogs. In chronically hypoxemic dogs, hematocrit (Hct) was increased in 4/47 (8.5%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0-17) dogs, erythrocyte count (Erytr) was increased in 12/47 (26%; 95%CI, 13-38) dogs and hemoglobin concentration (Hb) was increased in 3/47 (6.4%; 95%CI, 0-14) dogs. No marked polycythemia (Hct ≥65%) was noted in any of the dogs. Red blood cell parameters were not associated with the severity of hypoxemia (correlation to PaO CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: Polycythemia is uncommon, and usually mild if present, in dogs with chronic hypoxia caused by pulmonary disease.
