Mitochondrial oxygen tension in critically ill patients receiving red blood cell transfusions: a multicenter observational cohort study.
Article in Intensive care medicine experimental, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purposeCurrently, there is no marker of efficacy of red blood cell (RBC) transfusion. This study describes the impact of RBC transfusion on mitochondrial oxygen tension (mitoPO
methodsCritically ill patients with a hemoglobin concentration < 10 g/dL, for whom a single RBC unit had been ordered, were included. MitoPO
resultsSixty-three patients participated, median age 64.0 (interquartile range (IQR) 52.3-72.8) years, median hemoglobin concentration before transfusion 7.4 (IQR 7.1-7.7) g/dL. Median mitoPO
conclusionRBC transfusion did not alter mitoPO
