Stability of immature platelets present in platelet units during hemoconcentration.
Article in Journal of thrombosis and thrombolysis, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Immature platelets represent the youngest platelets in circulation. They are also present in all platelet units given to patients. However, there is limited knowledge of what occurs to these platelets during routine blood manipulation at transfusion facilities. We aimed to establish quantitative changes in immature platelets during routine volume reduction procedures. Platelet units were centrifuged followed by volume reduction and resuspension in a smaller volume. Centrifugation and hemoconcentration resulted in a significant increase per milliliter in platelets and immature platelets. Analysis of total counts of platelets and immature platelets after manipulation showed that these were conserved without significant changes. Furthermore, the ratio of platelets to immature platelets after manipulation also remained unchanged. Importantly manipulation did not seem to affect viability of immature platelets. These results indicate that centrifugation and hemoconcentration preserved immature platelets in platelet units.
