Whole Blood Viscosity and Its Associations with Age, Hematologic Indices, and Serum Biochemical Variables in Clinically Healthy Beagle Dogs and Korean Shorthair Cats.

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
This study investigated whether Whole blood viscosity (WBV) varies with age in clinically healthy Beagle dogs and Korean Shorthair cats and examined the hematologic and biochemical variables associated with WBV. WBV was measured across multiple shear rates using a scanning capillary viscometry; complete blood count (CBC) and serum chemistry profiles were also evaluated. Both species demonstrated characteristic shear-thinning behavior. WBV showed a strong association with red blood cell count (RBC), hematocrit (HCT), and hemoglobin (Hb) in both species, with additional association with serum proteins and cholesterol in dogs. No significant relationship between WBV and age was identified at any shear rate, and principal component analysis (PCA) revealed no age-related clustering in the viscosity profiles. These findings indicated that WBV does not exhibit meaningful age-dependent trends in healthy companion animals. This suggests that, in a clinical setting, deviations in normal WBV are more likely to influence underlying physiological or pathological factors than normal aging.
