Long-term clinical outcomes of peritoneal dialysis patients: 9-year experience of a single centre in Turkey
Article in Turkish journal of medical sciences, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background/aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes and identify the predictors of mortality in peritoneal dialysis patients. Materials and methods: Medical records of all incident peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients followed up between January 2011 and May 2019 were reviewed retrospectively. All patients were followed up until death, renal transplantation, transfer to haemodialysis or the end of the study. Results: A total of 242 patients were included in the study. The incidence of peritonitis was 0.18 (ranging from 0 to 14.9) episodes per patient year. Death occurred in 28% (n: 68) of cases. Age, diabetes mellitus, malignancy and refractory heart failure were independent risk factors for all-cause mortality according to multivariate analysis. The presence of comorbid disease and diabetes mellitus and patients aged > 65 years were associated with increased risk of mortality and decreased patient survival. Peritonitis history was associated with increased risk of mortality. Between peritonitis and peritonitis-free group, there was no significant difference in Kaplan-Meier curves in terms of patient survival. Conclusion: This is the first study to define 9-year mortality predictors in PD patients in our centre. Although peritonitis is the most feared complication of PD, our study showed that peritonitis did not reduce patient survival.
