Interdialytic weight gain in oligoanuric children and adolescents on chronic hemodialysis.
Article in Pediatric nephrology (Berlin, Germany), 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 30 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundLittle is known about the clinical impact of interdialytic weight gain (IDWG) on oligoanuric children undergoing chronic hemodialysis (HD).
methodsWe retrospectively assessed IDWG, left ventricular mass index (LVMI) and its changes (ΔLVMI), pre-HD systolic and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), residual urine output, Kt/V, the frequency of intradialytic symptoms, normalized protein catabolic rate, and the 3-month change in the dry weight of 16 hemodialyzed oligoanuric patients with a median age of 14.8 years (range 5.0-17.9).
resultsThere was a significant correlation between IDWG and median LVMI (r 0.55, p = 0.026), which was 27.3 g/m(2.7) (22.5-37.6) in the patients with a median IDWG of <4 %, and 44.3 g/m(2.7) (28.2-68.7) in those with a median IDWG of >4 % (p = 0.003). None of the four patients with an IDWG of <4 % showed left ventricular hypertrophy, compared with 10 of the 12 patients (83.3 %) with an IDWG of >4 % (p = 0.003); the former also had a better median ΔLVMI (-33.5 % vs -13.0 %; p = 0.02) and a lower median DBP sds (0.24 vs 1.72, p = 0.04).
conclusionsThere is a significant correlation between IDWG and LVMI in pediatric oligoanuric patients on chronic HD: those with an IDWG of >4 % are at a higher risk of left ventricular hypertrophy.
