No difference in meeting hemoglobin and albumin targets for dialyzed children with urologic disorders.

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
Urologic disorders are the most common cause of chronic kidney disease in children. To determine whether children with urologic etiology of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) fare better than children with ESRD from other causes while on dialysis, we conducted a cross-sectional study of children <18 years receiving peritoneal and hemodialysis in the United States using data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services 2005 ESRD CPM Project. We compared baseline demographics and the study groups. In multivariate logistic regression analysis of 1,286 subjects, we assessed whether children with urologic disorders had a higher odds of meeting adult KDOQI targets for hemoglobin levels ≥11 g/dl and albumin ≥3.5 BCG/3.2 BCP g/dl. We conducted a subset analysis of 1,136 patients to examine the impact of erythropoietin on hemoglobin targets. Our results did not reveal differences in achievement of adult hemoglobin targets (adjusted OR: 1.27; p value 0.09; CI: 0.97-1.66) or in the subset analysis with erythropoietin (adjusted OR: 1.32; p value 0.06; CI: 0.98-1.78) or albumin targets (adjusted OR: 1.22; p value 0.21; CI: 0.90-1.65) in adjusted analyses. Due to our study's limitations, it is difficult to determine whether this may result from treatment prior to dialysis initiation or treatment effect of dialysis rather than underlying diagnosis.
