Acoustofluidic-based therapeutic apheresis system.
Article in Nature communications, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Therapeutic apheresis aims to selectively remove pathogenic substances, such as antibodies that trigger various symptoms and diseases. Unfortunately, current apheresis devices cannot handle small blood volumes in infants or small animals, hindering the testing of animal model advancements. This limitation restricts our ability to provide treatment options for particularly susceptible infants and children with limited therapeutic alternatives. Here, we report our solution to these challenges through an acoustofluidic-based therapeutic apheresis system designed for processing small blood volumes. Our design integrates an acoustofluidic device with a fluidic stabilizer array on a chip, separating blood components from minimal extracorporeal volumes. We carried out plasma apheresis in mouse models, each with a blood volume of just 280 μL. Additionally, we achieved successful plasmapheresis in a sensitized mouse, significantly lowering preformed donor-specific antibodies and enabling desensitization in a transplantation model. Our system offers a new solution for small-sized subjects, filling a critical gap in existing technologies and providing potential benefits for a wide range of patients.
