1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Perflurocarbon-based oxygen carriers (PBOC) represent a major category of artificial oxygen therapeutics. Since their initial report of potential oxygen-carrying capability half a century ago, some PBOC products have been developed for the purpose of oxygen therapeutics. Unfortunately, the majority of these products have been discontinued due to side effects, such as Flusol-DA-20, Oxygent, and Oxycyte. PBOC is unique due to its inorganic nature and relatively smaller molecules, making it possible to production in massive quantity. Perftoran was developed in Moscow, Russia, and approved for clinical use in Russia and Mexico from 2005 to 2010. Perftoran had been administered to over 35,000 patients with purportedly relatively mild adverse effects. Thus, FluorO2 Therapeutics, Inc. is rebranding and investigating it for the North America market. PHER-O2 is undergoing active translational research, with the goal of reaching clinical stages of application. Albumin-derived perfluorocarbon-based artificial oxygen carriers are the newest development in PBOC field of blood substitute/oxygen therapeutics.
