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

Gastrointestinal complications are known to commonly occur in patients with renal failure. Uremia and dialysis have long been speculated to increase the risk of lesions in the gastrointestinal tract and accessory organs. In addition, gastrointestinal procedures such as gastrointestinal bypass surgery and the administration of colonoscopy preparations can lead to the development of renal complications. Results from studies that have attempted to define the association between renal dysfunction and gastrointestinal complications are, however, conflicting and limited by small and varied sample populations. No clear management guidelines currently exist for many of the gastrointestinal problems that accompany renal failure. This Review examines the existing data on gastrointestinal complications in patients with chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease and aims to outline the etiology and management of common gastrointestinal disorders in such patients.
