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

backgroundBlood pressure (BP) is currently the main hemodynamic parameter used to assess the influence of fluid removal during hemodialysis session. Since BP is dependent on cardiac output (CO) and total peripheral resistance (TPRI), investigating these parameters may help to better understand the influence of fluid removal on patient's hemodynamics. We used a novel non-invasive whole-body bio-impedance cardiography device, recently validated in hemodialysis patients, to examine mechanisms of intradialytic hemodynamics in a Chinese dialysis population.

methodsChronic hemodialysis patients in Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital were enrolled. Demographic data and dialysis prescriptions were collected. Hemodynamic measurements were made pre-treatment, every 20 min during treatment and immediately after treatment in each random dialysis session. These included blood pressure, cardiac index (CI), total peripheral resistance (TPRI) and cardiac power index (CPI). Patients were divided into 5 hemodynamic groups as per their major hemodynamic response to fluid removal: low CPI, low TPRI, high TPRI, High CPI and those with normal hemodynamics.

resultsTwenty-seven patients were enrolled, with 12 (44.4%) males. The average age was 65 ± 12 y. The average body mass index (BMI) was 23.7 ± 3.9 kg/m2. 12 (44.4%) patients were diabetic. Three hundred twenty-four hemodynamic measurements were made. Weight, BMI, total fluid removal, pretreatment systolic BP, CI, TPRI and CI differed significantly among the 5 hemodynamic groups.11.1% of patients had low CPI, 25.9% had low TPRI, 18.5% had high CPI, 3.7% had high TPRI and 40.7% had normal hemodynamics. Hemodynamic differences among the 5 subgroups were significant.

conclusionThis technology provides multi-dimensional insight into intradialytic hemodynamic parameters, which may be more informative than blood pressure only. Using hemodynamic parameters to describe patients' status is more specific and accurate, and could help to work out specific and effective therapeutic actions according to underlying abnormalities.
