Clearance of pathogenic erythrocytes is maintained despite spleen dysfunction in children with sickle cell disease.
Article in American journal of hematology, 2024. 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
In children with sickle cell disease (SCD), splenectomy is immediately beneficial for acute sequestration crises and hypersplenism (ASSC/HyS) but portends a long-term risk of asplenia-related complications. We retrieved peripheral and splenic red blood cells (RBCs) from 17 SCD children/teenagers undergoing partial splenectomy for ASSC/HyS, 12 adult subjects without RBC-related disease undergoing splenectomy (controls), five human spleens perfused ex vivo with Hb
