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
Acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH) is a useful intraoperative blood conservation technique. However, the impact on long-term outcomes in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains unclear. The present study investigated the impact of ANH on long-term outcomes in patients with PDAC undergoing radical surgery. Data from 155 resectable PDAC cases were collected. Patients were categorized according to whether or not they had received intraoperative allogeneic blood transfusion (ABT) or ANH. Postoperative complications, recurrence-free survival (RFS) and disease-specific survival (DSS), before and after propensity score matching (PSM), were compared among patients who did and did not receive ANH. A total of 44 patients (28.4%) were included in the ANH group and 30 patients (19.4%) were included in the ABT group; 81 (52.3%) patients, comprising the standard management (STD) group, received neither ANH nor ABT. The ABT group had the worst prognosis among them. Before PSM, ANH was significantly associated with decreased RFS (P=0.043) and DSS (P=0.029) compared with the STD group before applying Bonferroni correction; however, no significant difference was observed after applying Bonferroni correction. Cox regression analysis identified ANH as an independent prognostic factor for RFS [relative risk (RR), 1.696; P=0.019] and DSS (RR, 1.876; P=0.009). After PSM, the ANH group exhibited less favorable RFS [median survival time (MST), 12.1 vs. 18.1 months; P=0.097] and DSS (MST, 32.1 vs. 50.5 months; P=0.097) compared with the STD group; however, these differences were not statistically significant. In conclusion, while ANH was not as harmful as ABT, it exhibited potentially more negative effects on long-term postoperative outcomes in PDAC than STD.
