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
The study was designed to assess a practical mode of postdilution continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CVVH) with regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) using a calcium-containing replacement solution, and to compare it with a CVVH mode with no anticoagulation (NA). Both methods were employed in our center for acute kidney injury (AKI) patients at high risk of bleeding. Fifty-six patients were equally allocated into the RCA-CVVH group and the NA-CVVH group. The study displayed no significant differences between groups involving baseline characteristics, severity level, blood gas analysis, hepatic/renal/coagulative functions, electrolytes, hemoglobin concentration, and platelet counts before or after continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Compared to the NA-CVVH group, the RCA-CVVH group had a lower level of transfused packed red blood cells and platelet as well as a longer filter lifespan. The result showed no substantial differences between groups in terms of the mean supporting time and cost involving CRRT per person, the length of ICU and hospital stays, and the ICU survival. Homeostasis was basically preserved at a target range during the RCA post-CVVH procedure. Serious complications did not arise during the RCA process. RCA postdilutional CVVH is a safe and effective mode for application in AKI patients with a high risk of bleeding, and it can extend the filter lifespan and decrease blood loss, compared with the NA mode for CRRT. Further studies are needed to evaluate this mode for CRRT. (Retrospective Registration number ChiCTR1800016462, Registration date 2/6/2018).
