Successful administration of eltrombopag in preparation for peritoneal dialysis catheter placement in a girl with MYH9-related disease.
Article in CEN case reports, 2023. 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
MYH9-related disease is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by macrothrombocytopenia, nephropathy, inclusion bodies in leukocytes, sensorineural hearing loss, and cataract. Severe cases require kidney replacement therapy in the patient's second decade of life; thrombocytopenia constitutes a major risk factor for hemorrhagic complications during dialysis initiation or kidney transplantation. Prophylactic platelet transfusion prior to surgery is commonly administered to affected patients in these cases. However, transfusion in such patients has limitations other than the general risk of allergic reactions and blood-borne infections; it may also trigger alloimmunization, leading to platelet transfusion resistance or the development of anti-donor antibodies in potential kidney transplant recipients. Here, we describe prophylactic administration of eltrombopag, an oral thrombopoietin receptor agonist, prior to laparoscopic peritoneal dialysis catheter placement in a 15-year-old girl with MYH9-related disease. Her platelet count was approximately 30 × 10
