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

purposeAs peritoneal damage in long-term peritoneal dialysis therapy is a major problem correlated to patient prognosis, diagnosis of peritoneal damage is important. To develop a diagnostic method for peritoneal damage, we focused on hyperpermeability across the peritoneum in a pathogenic peritoneal damage condition. In this study, disposition characteristics of an intraperitoneally injected marker substance in peritoneal damaged rats were analyzed. MATERIALS AND

methodsPeritoneal damaged rats were prepared by intraperitoneal injection of a glucose degradation product, methylglyoxal (MGO), for five or ten consecutive days. Phenolsulfonphthalein (PSP), as a marker substance, was intraperitoneally or intravenously injected into MGO-treated rats. Subsequently, the PSP disposition characteristics were pharmacokinetically analyzed.

resultsIn both cases of 5 and 10 days treatment of MGO, absorption of PSP after intraperitoneal injection was significantly enhanced. Plasma concentration and urinary excretion of PSP in MGO-treated rats were also higher than those in saline-treated rats in the early phase. On the contrary, there was no significant difference in terms of the pharmacokinetic parameters of intravenously injected PSP in saline- or MGO-treated rats. These results indicated that intraperitoneally injected MGO primarily acts on the peritoneal membrane; therefore, the peritoneal permeability of the marker substance was enhanced.

conclusionWe demonstrated that pharmacokinetic analysis of peritoneum permeability might be a potent diagnostic method for peritoneal damage in experimental animals and patients receiving peritoneal dialysis.
