Diagnosis of severe anaemia and positive antibody screening as consequences of pre-analytical error.
Article in Journal of medical biochemistry, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The pre-analytical phase is the principal source of errors in laboratory medicine and continues to pose a challenge to laboratory professionals. We present the case of a 73-yearold female patient with a very low hemoglobin level (69 g/L) and positive indirect antiglobulin test result that indicates the key role of phlebotomy as an important error-prone process in which mistakes can have serious consequences for the patient's diagnosis and treatment. We conclude that there is still an urgent and continuous need to provide educational activities for healthcare professionals involved in blood collection, improve blood collection guideline adherence, and eliminate the errors which can affect diagnosis and treatment, thus jeopardising patient safety.
