The Gut in Older Patients on Peritoneal Dialysis.
Review in Peritoneal dialysis international : journal of the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this 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.

Abstract
Age-related changes in gastrointestinal symptoms need to be considered in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. A diminishing appetite is associated with aging and may be exacerbated by renal failure and PD treatment, meaning that attention to dietary adequacy is important in the older patient. Constipation and its treatment may increase the risk of peritonitis, but is important for comfort as well as trouble-free dialysis. Diverticulosis increases with age, and whilst there may be ethnic differences in the patterns of this condition, there is conflicting evidence regarding the risks of peritonitis associated with asymptomatic disease. Hernias, urinary incontinence, and prolapse are also common and made worse by PD, so it is important to know about these issues prior to starting. Whilst data around these topics are scant and some studies conflicting, further understanding these issues and considering mitigation strategies may improve technique survival and quality of life.
