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
Background: Usually hemoglobin and hematocrit are obtained from peripheral venous blood samples processed in equipment for hematic biometry. These parameters can also be determined from arterial samples processed on blood gas equipment. Its variability when using arterial samples and this equipment is unknown, in addition, if the lack of knowledge of this variability affects clinical decisions. Objective: To know the variability of hemoglobin and hematocrit from arterial blood samples processed in blood gas equipment. Material and methods: Analytic cross design. Consecutive subjects with stable cardiopulmonary disease were blindly studied. The samples were obtained at the same time for analysis in both equipments. Variability was analyzed with Bland-Altman descriptive statistic and its magnitude with the intraclass correlation coefficient. Results: Two hundred of blood samples from 50 patients were studied, 31 (62%) women, age 62 ± 14 years old, body mass index 30.11 ± 5.69 Kg/m2. The main comparison was peripheral venous blood sample processed in laboratory equipment (SYSMEX) vs. arterial sample on blood gas equipment (GEM). The mean difference (bias) and intraclass correlation coefficient for hemoglobin were: 0.12 (-1.45, 1.23) and 0.95 (0.91, 0.97); for the hematocrit -4.4 (-0.4, 8.54), and 0.72 (0.51, 0.84). Conclusions: The mean difference and bias for hemoglobin was close to 0; the hematocrit was higher. Hemoglobin from arterial samples processed in blood gas equipment can be used to make clinical decisions.
