Lessons learned from peginesatide in the treatment of anemia associated with chronic kidney disease in patients on dialysis.
Review in Biologics : targets & therapy, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Peginesatide is the newest erythropoietin-stimulating agent (ESA) in the quest for the ideal treatment of anemia in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Reduced frequency of administration along with a possibly lower cost as a result of simpler manufacturing techniques compared with other available agents makes peginesatide a highly desirable product in the competitive ESA market. Peginesatide is noninferior to the other ESAs, and has a good safety profile in patients on hemodialysis. The higher rates of adverse cardiovascular events reported in CKD patients not on dialysis in the recent Phase III studies require further, better planned, studies. Peginesatide had to be withdrawn from the market in the US after some reports of hypersensitivity reactions to the drug. This is a setback, but the scientific advances gained as a result of this product development can be used to develop other, newer products.
