Investing in the future: addressing the rising cost of perfusion education in 2025.
Article in The journal of extra-corporeal technology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
The demand for allied healthcare professionals has surged, raising concerns about the rising costs of education. Tuition for post-baccalaureate and master's programs in perfusion technology ranges from $18,000 to $106,500 annually, often surpassing $100,000 in total expenses. This financial burden presents significant challenges for prospective students, restricting their entry into the field. High costs could lead to a reduction in the number of qualified perfusionists, negatively impacting patient care. To address these challenges, partnerships between academic institutions and healthcare organizations could facilitate the development of scholarships or sponsored work studies. Additionally, policymakers should advocate for increased funding and other initiatives to help alleviate the financial strain allied health professionals face. Creating innovative solutions to these financial challenges may lead to a more diverse group of professionals in the field, enriching perspectives and approaches to patient care. Investing in accessible education will strengthen the healthcare system, benefiting providers and patients.
