Electrocardiographic predictors of mortality and sudden cardiac death in patients with end stage renal disease on hemodialysis.
Article in Journal of electrocardiology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
Patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis experience a high incidence of cardiovascular mortality, and sudden cardiac death (SCD) accounts for approximately 25% of all deaths in this patient population. Despite this high risk of SCD, many non-invasive SCD risk stratification tools that are frequently applied to other patient populations (such as those with prior myocardial infarction and reduced left ventricular systolic function) may be less useful markers of increased SCD risk in ESRD. Improved SCD risk stratification tools for use specifically in patients on hemodialysis are therefore necessary to optimally target use of primary prevention interventions aimed at decreasing SCD incidence. Electrocardiography is an effective, non-invasive SCD risk stratification tool in hemodialysis patients. This article reviews data supporting the association between various ECG parameters (QT interval, spatial QRS-T angle, signal averaged ECG, heart rate variability, and T-wave alternans) and mortality/SCD in the dialysis population. Despite the association between abnormal ECG parameters and SCD, it remains unclear if these abnormal parameters (such as prolonged QT interval) are mechanistically related to SCD and/or ventricular arrhythmias, or if they are simply markers for more severe cardiac disease, such as left ventricular hypertrophy, that may independently predispose to SCD. Current obstacles that impair widespread implementation of ECG risk stratification in the hemodialysis population are also discussed.
