Rasburicase-Induced Falsely Low Measurement of Uric Acid in Tumor Lysis Syndrome: A Report of Two Cases.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Rasburicase, a recombinant urate-oxidase enzyme, can significantly catalyze the oxidation of uric acid to allantoin. It was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to control blood uric acid levels in both pediatric and adult patients especially those with tumor lysis syndrome. It is quite important to realize that rasburicase can continue to be effective ex vivo and cause falsely low results if the blood sample is not contained and transported in ice water immediately. We presented two cases of falsely low measurement of blood uric acid caused by rasburicase and elaborated the proper method for collecting and transporting blood samples from patients using rasburicase.
