1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeMalnutrition is the main determinant of mortality and morbidity in maintenance hemodialysis patients. In many countries except for China, it has been reported that short daily hemodialysis (SDHD) could improve nutritional status. We will report here the nutritional results obtained in the SDHD therapy period compared with conventional hemodialysis (cHD) therapy period in Chinese patients.

methodsThis study compared 29 SDHD patients (SDHD group), each patient served as his own control, with 30 cHD patients (cHD group) serving as the parallel controls. The hematologic parameters, anthropometric measurements, modified quantitative subjective global assessment (MQSGA) score, weekly standard Kt/V (std Kt/V) and average daily intake of protein were measured at baseline (SDHD

resultsThe average daily intake of protein, dry weight, body mass index, mid-arm circumference, mid-arm muscle circumference, serum albumin, prealbumin, cholesterol, hemoglobin, weekly std Kt/V values at SDHD

conclusionsSDHD may improve the nutritional status compared with cHD in Chinese patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis.
