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
To evaluate the usability of platelet mass index (PMI) thresholds to assess the repeated platelet transfusion requirements in neonates who have received transfusion within the previous six days. This is a retrospective cross-sectional study conducted with neonates who received prophylactic platelet transfusion. The PMI was calculated as platelet count (× 1000/mm3) × mean platelet volume (MPV) (fL). Platelet transfusions were divided into two groups as first (Group 1) and repeated transfusions (Group 2). The increment and percentage of increment in platelet counts, MPV and PMI after transfusion were compared between the two groups. The amounts of changes were calculated as: (Post-transfusion) - (Pre-transfusion values). The percentages of changes were calculated as: ([Post-transfusion - Pre-transfusion values]/Pre-tansfusion values) × 100. Eighty three platelet transfusions were analyzed in 28 neonates. The median gestational age and birth weight were 34.5 (26-37) weeks, and 2225 (752.5-2937.5) grams, respectively. There were 20 (24.1%) transfusions in Group 1, and 63 (75.9%) transfusions in Group 2. There were no differences in the amounts of changes in platelet counts, MPV and PMI between the groups (
