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

backgroundThe relative contribution of transcapillary water movement and lymphatic reabsorption in peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a critical issue, particularly in patients with ultrafiltration failure (UFF). Based on routine results obtained from the PD Adequest 2.0 software, the present study aimed to re-evaluate the separate effects of transcapillary water movement and lymphatic reabsorption on the net ultrafiltration capacity in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients without UFF.

methodsSeventy CAPD patients without UFF and PD duration less than 2 years entered the study. The study was conducted during January-April 2016 at Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Mashhad, Iran. Each patient had 1 to 3 peritoneal equilibration test (PET) results which were used to analyze the determinants of fluid transport, lymphatic reabsorption, and ultrafiltration. Pearson and Spearman correlation tests were used to determine the correlation between continuous and ordinal factors, respectively. The data were analyzed using the SPSS software version 19.0.

resultsIn terms of the effective lymphatic absorption rate (ELAR) and ultrafiltration coefficient (LpA) values, there was no difference in the high or high-average transporters compared to the low or low-average transporters. However, a positive and highly significant correlation between ELAR and LpA was found.

conclusionA significant correlation between ELAR and LpA was found in CAPD patients without UFF and duration less than 2 years from the beginning of PD. The abstract was presented in the 53
