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

objectiveThe aim of this study was to examine the effect of volume status on the progressions of renal disease in normovolemic and hypervolemic patients with advanced non-dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (CKD) who were apparently normovolemic in conventional physical exam-ination. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis was a prospective interventional study performed in a group of stage 3-5 CKD patients followed up for 1 year. Three measurements were made for volume and renal status for every patient. The fluid status was assessed by a bioimpedance spectroscopy method. A blood pressure (BP) value > 130/80 mm Hg prompted the initiation or dose increment of diuretic treatment in normovolemic patients.

resultForty-eight patients (48%) were hypervolemic. At the end of the 1-year follow-up, hypervolemic patients were found to have a significantly lower estimated glomerular filtration rate and higher systolic BP compared to baseline. Hypervolemia was associated with an increased incidence of death.

conclusionWe have shown that maintenance of normovolemia with diuretic therapy in normovolemic patients was able to slow down and even improve the progression of renal disease. Volume overload leads to an increased risk for dialysis initiation and a decrease in renal function in advanced CKD. Volume overload exhibits a stronger association with mortality in CKD patients.
