Prehospital blood transfusion in Brazil: results of the first year of implementation in an emergency medical service.

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
introductionHemorrhagic shock is the main cause of death in the prehospital environment, which highlights the need to standardize measures aiming at bleeding control and volume replacement in this environment. In Brazil, the first prehospital packed red blood cell transfusion service started in September 2020, in Bragança Paulista, state of São Paulo.
objectivesDescribe the trends and characteristics of patients who received prehospital transfusions prior to hospital treatment during the first year of operation.
methodsA retrospective data review was made of all patients who received transfusions from the mobile intensive care unit in Bragança Paulista over one year.
resultsIn this period, 19 patients were transfused. Since activation, the average response time was 20 min. The mean shock indexes before and after blood transfusion were 2.16 and 1.1, respectively. During the course of the 1st year of prehospital transfusions, no blood was wasted and there were no adverse effects.
conclusionIntroduction of the prehospital packed red blood cell transfusion service was successful, with significant improvement in hemodynamic parameters.
