Home dialysis as a first option: a new paradigm.
Review in International urology and nephrology, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
Traditionally, the initial choice of dialysis for patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) has been in-center hemodialysis (HD) or peritoneal dialysis (PD). Usually, the choice between these (PD vs. HD) has been based on the characteristics of the dialysis techniques. Obviously the choice of peritoneal dialysis implied dialysis at home, but its geographic location has been only a secondary consideration. Peritoneal dialysis has evolved as a dependable mode that gives good outcomes. This method has become more attractive with the option of overnight cyclers and the recent use of home helpers in some jurisdictions. At the same time the interest in home hemodialysis was rekindled by reports of good outcomes with short daily or nocturnal hemodialysis. Home dialysis (PD or HD) offers high quality of treatment, a high degree of patient independence, and is financially attractive. Therefore, we propose a change in our approach to the choice of the initial form of dialysis for patients with ESRD. Instead of choosing between HD and PD we should present the new patients the advantage of dialysis at home and instead of asking them to choose between peritoneal dialysis or hemodialysis, they should be offered the option to choose between dialysis at home (PD or HD) or in-hospital. This paper will review the advantages of the home-based dialysis methods and the arguments for this simple but vital change in the process of choosing the method of dialysis.
