A breakthrough trial of an artificial liver without systemic heparinization in hyperbilirubinemia beagle models.
Article in Bioactive materials, 2023. 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
The development of wearable artificial livers was restricted to device miniaturization and bleeding risk with water-soluble anticoagulants. Herein, a double-deck column filled with solid anticoagulant microspheres and Kevlar porous microspheres (KPMs, bilirubin adsorbents) was connected with the principle machine of wearable artificial liver (approximately 9 kg) to treat hyperbilirubinemia beagles for the first time. With the initial normal dose of heparin, the double-deck column could afford 3 h hemoperfusion in whole blood without thrombus formation. The removal efficiency of the double-deck column for total bilirubin (TBIL) was 31.4%. Interestingly, the excessive amounts of hepatocyte metabolites were also decreased by approximately 25%. The "anticoagulant + column" realized safe and effective whole blood hemoperfusion without the plasma separation system and heparin pump; however, the proposed principle machine of wearable artificial liver and "anticoagulant + column" cannot completely replace the bio-liver now. The intelligence of the device and the versatility of the adsorbent need to be improved; moreover, advanced experimental techniques need to be developed to validate the survival rates in animals. Overall, this study is a meaningful trial for the development of wearable artificial livers in the future.
