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

Blood pressure (BP) management posed great challenge in hemodialysis (HD) population. We conducted a dose-response meta-analysis to investigate the quantitative features and the potential threshold effect of the associations between peridialysis BP levels and all-cause mortality risk in HD population. We searched all of the prospective cohort studies (published before 18 March 2017) on the associations between peridialysis BP levels and all-cause mortality risk. A total of 229,688 prevalent HD patients from 8 studies were included. Significant non-linear associations were noted between peridialytic BP levels and all-cause mortality risk. Significant increased risk of death was found in four peridialysis BP ranges, that is, low levels of predialysis SBP (<135 mmHg, 140 mmHg as the reference), two extremes of predialysis DBP (<55 and >95 mmHg, 90 mmHg as the reference), high levels of postdialysis SBP (>180 mmHg, 130 mmHg as the reference), and low levels of postdialysis DBP (<75 mmHg, 80 mmHg as the reference). Threshold effect was determined in the associations between peridialysis BP and all-cause mortality risk, and potential BP thresholds were identified (149 mmHg for predialysis SBP, 79 mmHg for predialysis DBP, 147 mmHg for postdialysis SBP and 76 mmHg for postdialysis DBP). In conclusion, the proposed peridialysis BP ranges and the threshold values could help clinicians identify high risk HD patients. The interpretation of the peridialysis BP mortality associations should be based on the features of HD population (especially the cardiovascular conditions, volume status and the dialysis vintage).
