New insights in fluid monitoring for surgical patients. A concept study.
Article in Frontiers in medical technology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Purpose: This study evaluates the primary hypothesis of red cell mass (RCM) dependent amplitude of homeostatically acceptable limits of fluctuation in plasma dilution by exploring the correlation between RCM-specific equilibrated hematocrit (EQ_Hct) and amplitude of plasma dilution during perioperative mini Volume Loading Test (mVLT). Materials and methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from our previous RCTs, including 1,651 invasive arterial plasma dilution (aPD), 1,645 noninvasive "capillary" plasma dilution (cPD) and 236 estimates of EQ_Hct from 236 perioperative mVLT sessions. The cPD was estimated using noninvasive hemoglobin (SpHb, Masimo Radical 7, Irvine, CA) measurement. Fixed number of crystalloid boluses was used in 36 and 48 elective total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients, and individualized number of boluses in 34 total hip arthroplasty (THA) patients for whom the number of boluses depended on the advices by our prototype automated clinical decision support system (ACDSS). Results: The primary hypothesis was confirmed-aPD decreased as EQ_Hct decreased when EQ_Hct <40%, and a very weak positive correlation was found between EQ_Hct and absolute aPD (Spearman's correlation coefficient 0.1025, Conclusion: This study points to the feasibility of Photoplethysmography (PPG) based estimates of hemoglobin concentration for continuous noninvasive monitoring of fluid accumulation and detecting imminent edema using the Homeostatic Blood States (HBS) theory and transcapillary reflux model. The ACDSS-guided fluid loading has a potential to minimise unnecessary fluid accumulation. Further research is needed to explore and improve these techniques.
