Impact of hemodialysis on the prognosis of multiple myeloma: A nationwide population-based study and single-institute analysis.

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
Myeloma-associated kidney disease (MRKD) occurs in ≤40% patients with multiple myeloma (MM). The impact of hemodialysis (HD) on patients with MM was investigated. Between 2000 and 2010, a total of 1,610 patients in Taiwan were enrolled from the National Health Institute Research Database. MM was an independent risk factor for HD following adjustment via multivariate logistic regression analysis (adjusted hazard ratio, 7.347; 95% confidence interval, 6.156-8.768; log-rank test, P<0.001). In addition, a notable decrease in survival rate was determined in patients with MM who underwent HD in the first year since diagnosis of MM. A total of 198 (61.49%) patients received HD in the first year. Patients with MM with a lower frequency of HD in the first year had a relatively good prognosis. The present study confirmed that MM was a risk factor for HD. Significant early mortality in the first year was determined in patients with MM who underwent HD; however, renal recovery following therapeutic management was a prognostic factor. In addition to anti-myeloma therapy, early initiation of HD was beneficial following risk stratification of MRKD; however, an increased probability of recovery of renal function and discontinuation of dialysis, was demonstrated in patients with MM following HD, compared with patients with MM without HD.
