Application of an autotransfusion pressure control system in blood salvage.
Trial report in The Journal of international medical research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveThis study was performed to evaluate the effect of a homemade autotransfusion pressure-control system on the regulation of negative pressure and to clarify the influence of different negative pressures on the recovered erythrocytes.
methodsFifty patients were randomly divided into five groups, and five different suction-generated negative pressures were applied. Before suction, 6 mL of blood was collected from the surgical field; after suction, 6 mL of blood was collected from the blood storage tank. The hemoglobin, hematocrit, mean corpuscular volume, newly generated standardized plasma free hemoglobin, and change in the hemolysis rate of erythrocytes before and after suction were compared. Additionally, the erythrocyte morphology was observed.
resultsThe hemoglobin and hematocrit were significantly different before and after suction in all five groups. As the suction pressure increased, gradual increases were noted in the number of abnormal erythrocytes in the field of view, the newly generated standardized plasma free hemoglobin, and the change in the hemolysis rate.
conclusionsThe destruction rate of erythrocytes increased as the suction-generated negative pressure increased. When using a pressure-control system, a negative pressure of <200 mmHg should be applied to reduce the damage to the autotransfused blood.
