Bombay blood group for pediatric cardiac surgery in the era of a pandemic: Newer challenges call for desperate measures!
Article in Annals of cardiac anaesthesia. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Bombay blood group is one of the rarest blood types with a prevalence of 1 per 10,000 population in India. Children and adults of this blood group can receive autologous blood or blood from an individual with a Bombay phenotype only. Children with grown-up uncorrected cyanotic heart disease are associated with a high risk of perioperative hemorrhagic diathesis and may require multiple blood transfusions. Arrangement of adequate Bombay blood group units for pediatric cardiac surgery is a unique challenge. The COVID-19 pandemic brought about additional difficulties in the procurement of blood components due to donor hostility. Despite the associated risks, pre-operative multi-session autologous blood harvest under monitored anesthesia care was planned in a 16-year-old child and four units of autologous blood were harvested and preserved for performing total correction surgery.
