Clinical outcome of incident peritoneal dialysis patients with diabetic kidney disease.
Article in Clinical and experimental nephrology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundAlthough peritoneal dialysis (PD) is becoming more widespread, PD among diabetic patients carries some concerns, such as worsened glycemic control due to constant exposure to glucose and operational errors due to diabetic complications. However, several technical advances could overcome these disadvantages. We, therefore, aimed to compare technical and patient survival between diabetic and non-diabetic PD patients.
methodsWe conducted a historical cohort study of 103 patients (mean age, 57 ± 16 years; 75 males, 32 diabetic patients) who started PD between January 2011 and January 2016. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to compare technical and patient survivals between diabetic and non-diabetic patients. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to estimate the effects of the presence of diabetes on these outcomes.
resultsTechnical and patient survivals did not differ significantly between groups (P = 0.62, P = 0.34, respectively). In addition, presence of diabetes affected neither technical nor patient survival in multivariate analysis (hazard ratio [HR], 1.31; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.58-2.82 and HR 0.80; 95% CI 0.22-2.68, respectively).
conclusionsTechnical and patient survivals of diabetic PD patients were not inferior to those of non-diabetic PD patients. These results suggest that no hesitation is warranted in initiating PD for diabetic patients with end-stage renal disease.
