The effect of lanthanum carbonate on metabolic acidosis in patients with chronic kidney disease stage IV, V and V-D.

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
purposeHyperphosphatemia and metabolic acidosis are frequently encountered in advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Correction of metabolic acidosis in patients with advanced CKD leads to a decrease in the progression of renal impairment and improves nutritional outcomes. Lanthanum carbonate is used for control of hyperphosphatemia. This study evaluated the effect of lanthanum carbonate on metabolic acidosis in CKD IV-V patients and in patients on dialysis.
methodsRetrospective data of patients in whom lanthanum carbonate therapy was initiated were collected from 2009 to 2013 in a single dialysis center. Of the 79 patients in whom lanthanum carbonate was introduced, 51 patients were included in the analysis. Of the 51 patients, 39 patients received chronic hemodialysis, two patients received peritoneal dialysis therapy, and 10 patients had stage IV-V CKD not on dialysis. The primary outcome was the serum bicarbonate change after the introduction of lanthanum carbonate.
resultsThere was a significant increase in mean serum bicarbonate concentration of 2.79 mmol/L (p ≤ 0.001) compared to baseline. The increase remained in the CKD IV-V patients (2.50 mmol/L, p = 0.005) and in the patients on dialysis (2.81 mmol/L, p < 0.001). Serum bicarbonate remained higher (p > 0.05) than baseline up to 6 months after lanthanum carbonate introduction.
conclusionIn this study, lanthanum carbonate introduction increased serum bicarbonate concentration in a small sample of CKD IV-V patients and in patients on dialysis. Further studies are needed to confirm this effect and investigate whether the correction of metabolic acidosis by using lanthanum carbonate in CKD IV-V patients can improve clinical outcomes.
