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
Platelet function testing is a crucial component in the diagnosis and management of hemostatic disorders in feline patients. Despite its importance, standardized methodologies for assessing platelet function in cats remain underexplored. This study aimed to optimize the conditions for Chrono-log platelet impedance aggregometry (IA) in feline whole blood, focusing on the impact of agonist type (collagen or ADP), agonist concentration, and anticoagulant (citrate or hirudin) on platelet aggregation responses. Whole blood from 10 clinically healthy domestic shorthair cats was prospectively evaluated under varying experimental conditions. Our results indicated that hirudin-anticoagulated samples produced significantly higher platelet aggregation responses compared to those anticoagulated with citrate across all agonist concentrations. A partial dose-dependent relationship was observed with collagen but not with ADP. These findings underscore the importance of selecting appropriate assay conditions for accurate platelet function testing in cats. This study provides insight into the methodology of feline whole blood impedance platelet aggregometry using the Chrono-log analyzer.
