The bacterial colonization in tunneled cuffed dialysis catheter and its effects on residual renal function in incident hemodialysis patients.
Article in Clinical and experimental nephrology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundThe bacterial colonization of hemodialysis catheter occurs frequently and reaches to the catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs). We hypothesized bacterial colonization promotes inflammation and that might be associated with renal outcome. The aim of this study was to investigate the colonization status for tunneled cuffed dialysis catheter (TCC) and the factors for contributing to the catheter colonization and explore whether bacterial colonization would be related with declining of residual renal function (RRF).
methods115 patients who received TCC removal operation and underwent catheter tip culture from January 2005 to June 2014 were enrolled. The follow-up data such as urine output (UO), time to anuria and patients' survival were collected from the patients or their family members by telephone in June, 2014.
resultsThere were nineteen patients (16.5 %, 19/115) with positive tip culture (colonization group). In the analysis of demographic and biochemical parameters, there were no significant differences between both groups. Fifty of all the subjects responded to the telephone survey and ten patients (20.0 %, 10/50) belonged to colonization group. The monthly decreasing rate of UO was significantly more rapid in colonization group (p = 0.001). The survival analysis showed that colonization group had worse estimated anuria-free survival than non-colonization group (p < 0.001). In multivariate cox regression, bacterial colonization of TCC was an independent factor influencing the loss of RRF (HR 4.29, 95 % CI: 1.905-9.683, p ≤ 0.001).
conclusionsBacterial colonization of TCC was associated with rapid loss of RRF.
