Measurement of Blood Viscoelasticity Using Thromboelastography.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Thromboelastography (TEG) was the first viscoelastic test (VET), invented in Germany in 1948 by Dr. Hartert, and which evaluates the hemostatic competence of whole blood. Thromboelastography was introduced before the activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), which was devised in 1953. TEG was not widely used until the introduction of a cell-based model of hemostasis (1994) showing the importance of platelets and tissue factor in hemostasis. Nowadays, VET has become an essential method for assessing hemostatic competence in cardiac surgery, liver transplantation, and trauma. TEG has undergone several modifications, but the concept on which the original TEG was based (cup and pin technology) remained in up to the TEG 5000 analyzer (Haemonetics, Braintree, MA). A new generation of thromboelastography, TEG 6s (Haemonetics, Boston, MA), that assesses blood viscoelastic properties by resonance technology has recently been developed. This newer methodology represents a cartridge-based, automated assay aimed to improve on historical TEG performance and precision. In the present chapter, we will review the advantages and limitations of TEG 5000 and TEG 6s systems as well as factors that affect TEG and which must be considered when interpreting TEG tracings.
