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

The purpose of the present study was to establish a continuous hemofiltration model using porcine blood to compare filter life. Continuous hemofiltration (CHF) experiments were performed using an in vitro hemofilter evaluation system utilizing porcine blood containing trisodium citrate in addition to nafamostat mesilate as anticoagulants. The lifetime of the hemofilter was evaluated using the transmembrane pressure and the pressure drop across the hemofilter at varying trisodium citrate concentrations. The porcine blood used in this experiment was considered to be in a slightly hypercoagulable state because of the continuous contact with non-biological materials and calcium inflow from substitution fluid. Blood containing 7 or 8 mM of trisodium citrate and nafamostat mesilate could be effectively used to compare the lifetimes of hemofilters utilized under the same conditions. In this CHF model using porcine blood, the plugging of the hollow fibers occurred shortly after the plugging of the membrane pores. In conclusion, a CHF model using porcine blood can be established by adjusting the concentration of trisodium citrate added to the blood.
