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
backgroundThe impact of pathogen reduction technology (PRT) on metabolic and hemostatic profile of treated platelets remains a subject of debate. Platelets Additive Solutions (PASs) are suggested as more appropriate storage medium compared to plasma. To investigate this in terms of zero heterogeneity PRT-treated and control apheresis platelet concentrates (PCs), collected from the same donors and stored in PAS and plasma respectively, were analyzed. MATERIALS AND
methodsIn the first arm of the study six double dose-apheresis PCs were produced, split and stored in plasma, while in the second arm six split double dose-apheresis PCs from the same donors, were produced and stored in PAS. Control and PRT-treated PCs resulted in both arms. Metabolic and hemostatic markers were evaluated in all the examined groups on days 1, 3 and 5.
resultsA time dependent increased metabolism both in PAS and plasma-stored PCs was evident in PRT-treated PCs. However, the metabolic profile was better preserved in PCs stored in PAS, as higher pH (6.8 vs 6.5, p=0.007) and lower lactate levels (12.6 vs 17.8 mmol/L, p=0.009) were documented in PRT-treated PAS-PCs compared to plasma-PCs, on day 5. A time dependent decreased hemostatic capacity regardless the storage medium was evident in PRT-treated PCs, (PAS-PCs MCF, p=0.004 and plasma-PCs MCF, p=0.007). Similar results were obtained in control PCs. DISCUSSION: The use of PAS preserves the metabolic profile of PCs more adequately compared to plasma but has no effect on the hemostatic profile. The clinical relevance of these findings needs further investigation.
