Feline Erythrocytic Osmotic Fragility in Normal and Anemic Cats-A Preliminary Study.

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
Erythrocyte osmotic fragility is an excellent parameter for evaluating the red blood cell (RBC) membrane, which may be abnormal in several pathological conditions. The flow cytometer is a powerful tool that analyzes a single cell in a solution and can detect alterations in RBCs, providing key differential diagnostic information. Both the osmotic fragility test (OFT) and flow cytometry are valuable diagnostic tools in veterinary medicine, but their diagnostic usefulness in anemic cats has not yet been determined. This study aimed to evaluate RBC membrane strength using an OFT in non-anemic and anemic cats and to compare RBC size and density using a flow cytometer in non-anemic and anemic cats. A total of 18 cats in the non-anemic group and 18 cats in the anemic group, divided into adults and seniors, were included in this study. Blood samples were collected for a complete blood count (CBC) and blood chemistry. The remaining blood was used for OFT to evaluate 50% hemolysis from the hemolysis curve and for the flow cytometer to measure forward scatter characteristics (FSC) and side scatter characteristics (SSC). The result of OFT showed no significant difference in OF between normal and anemic cats in the adult and senior groups. In terms of flow cytometry analysis, normal and anemic cats in the adult group showed no significant difference in the FSC (
