Multifactorial Comparative Analysis of Platelet-Rich Plasma and Serum Prepared Using a Commercially Available Centrifugation Kit.
Article in Cureus, 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
Background Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous product prepared by centrifuging whole blood. PRP is reported to have high tissue repair potential and anti-inflammatory properties. Recently, PRP has become a potential treatment option for osteoarthritis, contributing to pain relief and locomotive improvement. However, the underlying therapeutic mechanisms and key biochemical factors in PRP remain unclear. This study aimed to estimate the major factors for tissue repair involved in PRP treatment by comparing between serum and PRP prepared from the same patients using the Luminex assay. Methodology Blood samples were collected from nine healthy volunteers, and serum and PRP were prepared. PRP was prepared using a PEAK
