Influence of peritoneal dialysis solution on measurements of fluid status by bioimpedance spectroscopy.
Article in International urology and nephrology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
PURPOSE AND
methodsThe accurate estimation of volume status is a central problem in dialysis patients. Recently, a bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) device (BCM Body Composition Monitor FMC, Germany) has attained growing interest in this regard. By processing the raw data for extracellular water (ECW) and intracellular water (ICW) by means of a validated body composition model, this device allows a quantification of the individual fluid overload (FO) compared to a representative healthy population. In this study, we addressed the issue whether the presence of peritoneal dialysate has an impact on measurements of FO by BIS in PD patients.
resultsForty-two BIS measurements using the BCM device were performed both in the absence (D-) and presence (D+) of peritoneal dialysate in 17 stable PD patients. Data for ECW, ICW and FO (D+; D-) were analyzed by paired t test and linear regression. Mean FO was 0.99 ± 1.17 L in D- and 0.94 ± 1.27 in D+ (p = n.s. paired t test). Linear regression demonstrated an excellent degree of conformity between FO (D-) and FO (D+) (r (2) = 0.93).
conclusionThe presence of peritoneal fluid in PD patients has a negligible influence on measurements of FO by BIS. The BIS measurements can be therefore conveniently and reliably done without emptying the peritoneal cavity; this may facilitate the use of BIS in this particular group of patients.
