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

introductionThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of hemodialysis on the concentrations of sodium and potassium in the blood when a 25 g dose of sodium thiosulfate injection is infused over 60 minutes in combination with hemodialysis.

methodsSodium thiosulfate (25 g) was prepared by diluting 100 mL of 250 mg/mL Sodium Thiosulfate Injection with 800 mL of 5% dextrose. This was added to the circulating blood surrogate solution at a rate of 15 mL/minute using an infusion pump of an in vitro model of dialysis machine. Serial samples were collected before the administration of the sodium thiosulfate solution, after 15 minutes, 30 minutes, and 60 minutes of infusion from pre-and post-dialyzer ports in both the dialysate circuit and the extracorporeal circuit.

findingsThe concentration of sodium thiosulfate in pre-dialyzer and post-dialyzer samples of the circulating blood surrogate solution peaked at 30 minutes and 15 minutes, respectively and then remained relatively unchanged during the remainder of the infusion. Mean sodium concentrations (mEq/L) in the circulating blood surrogate solution collected after exposure to a dialyzer were 103.2 ± 12.2, 114.2 ± 18.8, 117.2 ± 7.5, 93.5 ± 5.9 at 0, 15, 30, and 60 minutes, respectively (p = 0.248). Mean potassium concentrations (mEq/L) in the circulating blood surrogate solution collected after exposure to a dialyzer were 1.4 ± 0.3, 1.6 ± 0.3, 1.5 ± 0.1, 1.2 ± 0.1 at 0, 15, 30, and 60 minutes, respectively (p = 0.365). Sodium and potassium concentrations in dialysate increased marginally after exposure to the dialyzer. DISCUSSION: Our study demonstrates that neither potassium nor sodium accumulated in circulating blood surrogate solution when a dose of sodium thiosulfate was infused in conjunction with hemodialysis.
