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
Objective: Introduce a novel protocol to prevent clotting and citrate accumulation (CA) from blood product transfusion (BPT) during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) with regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) in children. Methods: We prospectively compared fresh frozen plasma (FFP) and platelet transfusions between the two BPT protocols, direct transfusion protocol (DTP) and partial replacement of citrate transfusion protocol (PRCTP), in terms of the risks of clotting, citric accumulation (CA), and hypocalcemia. For DTP, blood products were directly transfused without any adjustment to the original RCA-CRRT regimen. For PRCTP, the blood products were infused into the CRRT circulation near the sodium citrate infusion point, and the dosage of 4% sodium citrate was reduced depending on the dosage of sodium citrate in the blood products. Basic information and clinical data were recorded for all children. Heart rate, blood pressure, ionized calcium (iCa) and various pressure parameters were recorded before, during and after BPT, as well as coagulation indicators, electrolytes, and blood cell counts before and after BPT. Results: Twenty-six children received 44 PRCTPs and 15 children received 20 DTPs. The two groups had similar Conclusion: Neither protocol was associated with filter clotting during RCA-CRRT. However, PRCTP was superior to DTP because it did not increase the risk of CA and hypocalcemia.
