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

introductionHemodialysis stands out as an eligible treatment for patients with chronic kidney disease. The subsequent inflammatory process resulting from this disease and hemodialysis per se is exacerbated in this therapy. Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element that can participate in the inhibition of pro-oxidant and pro-inflammatory processes and could be considered a measurement that indicates the progression of chronic kidney disease and inflammation.

objectivesThe present study investigated selenemia in hemodialysis patients of the ABC region of São Paulo and aimed to establish the correlation between an inflammatory marker and selenemia in this conditions disease.

methodsThis is an observational cross-sectional study of the Faculdade de Medicina do ABC in patients submitted to hemodialysis three times a week for at least six months. The eligible group composed of 21 patients, who filled out forms and underwent biochemical tests (colorimetric enzyme methods, flow cytometer, turbidimetric method and mass spectrometry).

resultsThe study population showed, women (70%), men (30%) with a mean age of 47 ± 17 years, Caucasians (36%) and non-Caucasian (64%), hypertensive (68%), smokers (53%) and non-smokers (64%). There was a hegemonic prevalence of systolic arterial hypertension (SAH) 68.1% in relation to diabetes mellitus (DM) (50%). Pre and post hemodialysis (HD) selenemia showed statistical significance, which did not occur with Creactive protein. There was a predominance of females in our sample; the pre- and post- HD selenemia were within the normal range of the reference values; there was a statistically significant correlation between pre and post-HD selenemia; there was no correlation with statistical significance between values of pre and post-HD C-reactive protein.

conclusionOur data showed that there was no direct relationship between pre- and post- HD inflammation and pre- and post-HD selenemia.
