Characterization of allogeneic platelet gel from adult donor blood and umbilical cord blood activated with locally prepared cryoprecipitate and thrombin: A pilot exercise.
Article in Transfusion, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundCharacterization of platelet gel (PG) from different blood sources and preparation methods remains incomplete. STUDY DESIGN AND
methodsThis study compared the weight, growth factor (GF) content, and gelation dynamics (via rotational thromboelastometry, ROTEM) of allogeneic PG prepared from adult blood (AB) and cord blood (CB) platelet concentrates (PC). ABPC were suspended in 100% plasma or 35% plasma/65% platelet additive solution (PAS), while CBPC were suspended in 100% plasma. PG was prepared in commercial BioNest D mini-bags using a method with calcium gluconate, locally made cryoprecipitate, and thrombin (CT), or a reference method with calcium gluconate and commercial batroxobin (BA). PG was analyzed at 30 min and 6 h.
resultsAt 30 min, PG weights were higher with CT than BA across all conditions. With 5 mL ABPC in 100% plasma, weights were 7.20 ± 1.07 g (CT) versus 2.72 ± 0.19 g (BA); with 10 mL ABPC in PAS, 9.49 ± 2.86 g (CT) versus 3.87 ± 3.1 g (BA); and with 4.09 ± 0.45 mL CBPC, 5.62 ± 1.21 g (CT) versus 2.04 ± 0.78 g (BA). All PGs lost mass by 6 h, but CT consistently retained more weight. GF percent retention in the PG at 6 h was higher with CT. ROTEM results showed differences in clotting time and comparable values of maximum clot firmness between PG from AB and CB. DISCUSSION: The CT method is a promising alternative for producing allogeneic PG using affordable, locally sourced reagents.
