Oxidative stress in children on hemodialysis: value of autoantibodies against oxidized low-density lipoprotein.

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
The principal causes of morbidity and mortality in children with chronic renal failure on maintenance hemodialysis are cardiovascular complications. Recently, it has been suggested that oxidative stress, chronic inflammation and malnutrition are risk factors for cardiovascular disease. However, to date, biomarkers of oxidative stress have not been well studied in children. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between oxidative stress and cardiovascular risk factors in children on hemodialysis therapy. Twenty-eight hemodialysis patients (13 females, 15 males; mean age 15.1 +/- 2.5 years) and 20 healthy children (13 females, seven males; mean age 14.3 +/- 2.7 years) were included in the study. Levels of antibodies to oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oLABs), high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), albumin, prealbumin, transferrin, and ferritin were measured. Antibodies to oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) in hemodialysis patients were lower than those in the controls (P < 0.05). The patients with lower oLAB titers had higher levels of hs-CRP and ratio of erythropoietin to hematocrit (EPO/Htc), and lower levels of albumin, prealbumin, apolipoprotein A-1 (ApoA(1)), and high-density lipoprotein (P < 0.05). Antibodies to oxidized LDL in hemodialysis patients with dyslipidemia were lower than those of patients with normal lipid profile (P < 0,05). This study showed that children treated by hemodialysis are exposed to oxidative stress and chronic inflammation. We suggest that oLAB levels are decreased in children on hemodialysis as a result of severe oxidative stress and that these antibodies are related to inflammation, anemia, malnutrition and dyslipidemia.
