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

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is substantially prevalent among patients in the end stage of renal disease (ESRD). We considered factors related to peripheral arterial disease in patients undergoing hemodialysis including the important role of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) serum concentrations. We studied 150 patients in on-line-predilution hemodiafiltration. Dialysis sufficiency was defined by Kt/V for urea. PAD was defined using clinical criteria, ankle-brachial index and Doppler ultrasound in the lower limbs. MCP-1 serum concentrations were measured using enzyme-linked immunoabsorbed assay (ΕLISA). We performed chi-square tests and logistic regression analysis to investigate risk factors for the prevalence of PAD in these patients including MCP-1 serum concentrations. The patients with manifested PAD had elevated MCP-1, higher BP, higher arterial stiffness markers, higher markers of malnutrition, uncontrolled metabolic acidosis, bone disease and lower obtained dialysis adequacy than the patients without PAD. The association between PAD manifestation and high MCP-1 was found significant (x
