1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundSeveral types of transfusion-related registries have been developed to improve patient outcomes and blood banks. In Korea, a transfusion program functioning as a blood group antibody database and a reference laboratory has been in operation since July 2013. This study was conducted to determine the current status of blood group antigens and antibodies in Korea and propose a model for registries in the field of transfusion medicine. MATERIALS AND

methodsCases with unexpected red cell antibodies were registered online in the voluntary transfusion registry. Specific antigen-negative frequencies were calculated based on the recorded data. To determine the frequencies of RhCE antigens, data added via the Blood Information Sharing System were also analyzed. Data added to the registries between July 2013 and June 2022 were included in the analysis.

resultsAmong 9,048 antibody cases registered from 29 hospitals, anti-E alone was identified most commonly, followed by anti-E and c, anti-C and e, anti-Lea, and anti-M (2,202, 1,792, 757, 618, and 383 cases, respectively). The frequencies of E-, E-c-, C-e-, Le(a-), and M- were 49.1%, 41.6%, 9.1%, 69.4%, and 21.8%, respectively. DISCUSSION: The distributions of antibodies and antigen frequencies were estimated through the transfusion registry. Antigen frequencies were calculated based on the results of antigen typing of red blood cell components performed at the time of issuing. The online transfusion registry serving as a blood group antibody database is useful for determining the frequencies of blood group antigens and antibodies.
