Experience of blood donation and return for subsequent donation among new and repeat donors.
Article in Transfusion, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundUnderstanding factors that influence return for subsequent donation in new compared to repeat blood donors is essential to recruiting and maintaining the blood donor base. STUDY DESIGN AND
methodsThe current research assessed self-reported attitudes, social norms, perceived behavioral control, intentions to donate, experiences during a current donation, and subsequent blood donation during the next 6 months, in a Canadian sample that included both new and repeat donors.
resultsBoth new and repeat donors had similar positive impressions of a novel blood donor questionnaire (DQ) that assessed individual sexual risk behavior as a basis for donor eligibility. Attitudes, norms, and perceived behavioral control predicted intentions and sureness to donate in the next 6 months, and intentions/sureness to donate were moderately predictive of subsequent donation within this time frame. New donors (compared to repeat donors) and participants who indicated that some aspect of their donation day experience could prevent them from returning for a subsequent donation, were significantly less likely to make a future donation within the next 6 months. DISCUSSION: Findings provide guidance for the support of new and repeat donors returning for subsequent blood donation.
