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

Dialysis as renal replacement therapy aims excess water and waste solutes from the uremic patient while retaining proteins in the plasma. Irrespective of the dialysis modality, hemodialysis (HD) or peritoneal dialysis (PD), the amount and composition of proteins that are removed are important determinants of the biocompatibility of the therapy. Although hemodialysis membranes would ideally be biologically inert filtration tubes, they are known to adsorb proteins. The part of the plasma proteome that is thereby removed during every dialysis session may be regarded as the extracorporeal proteome, which has to be kept in balance with the plasma proteome, regarding the individual proteins' biological roles and activation states. In a recent study, Ronci et al. (Proteomics Clin. Appl. 2018, e1700140) comprehensively compare two hemodialyzer membrane materials by shotgun LC-MS proteomic analysis of adsorbed proteins and ultrafiltrates from four HD patients. While pathway analysis is an attractive tool to compare different proteomes on an abstract level, some challenges remain regarding the adaptation for such tools for special proteomes and the interpretation of relative changes compared absolute changes regarding their biological importance in dialysis techniques. In summary, selective protein removal may represent a yet unexploited therapeutic opportunity if the "right" proteins are removed from the blood.
