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

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in cardiovascular function induced by a single session of hemodialysis (HD) by the analysis of cardiovascular dynamics using wave intensity wall analysis (WIWA) and of systolic and diastolic myocardial function using tissue velocity imaging (TVI). Gray-scale cine loops of the left common carotid artery, conventional echocardiography, and TVI images of the left ventricle were acquired before and after HD in 45 patients (17 women, mean age 54 years) with ESRD. The WIWA indexes, W(1) and preload-adjusted W(1), W(2) and preload-adjusted W(2), and the TVI variables, isovolumic contraction velocity (IVCV), isovolumic contraction time (IVCT), peak systolic velocity (PSV), displacement, isovolumic relaxation velocity (IVRV), isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT), peak early diastolic velocity (E'), and peak late diastolic velocity (A'), were compared before and after HD. The WIWA measurements showed significant increases in W(1) (P < 0.05) and preload-adjusted W(1) (P < 0.01) after HD. W(2) was significantly decreased (P < 0.05) after HD, whereas the change in preload-adjusted W(2) was not significant. Systolic velocities, IVCV (P < 0.001) and PSV (P < 0.01), were increased after HD, whereas the AV-plane displacement was decreased (P < 0.01). For the measured diastolic variables, E' was significantly decreased (P < 0.01) and IVRT was significantly prolonged (P < 0.05), after HD. A few correlations were found between WIWA and TVI variables. The WIWA and TVI measurements indicate that a single session of HD improves systolic function. The load dependency of the diastolic variables seems to be more pronounced than for the systolic variables. Preload-adjusted wave intensity indexes may contribute in the assessment of true LV contractility and relaxation.
