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

introductionGender has been proven to influence the pathophysiology and treatment of numerous diseases, including kidney diseases and hormonal dysfunction like hyperparathyroidism. Thus, higher parathormone levels have been demonstrated in women with end-stage kidney disease, when compared to men.

objectivesWe questioned whether female gender is associated with an increased risk for parathyroid nodular hyperplasia and necessary parathyroidectomy in dialysis patients and assessed demographics as well as outcome data for women and men undergoing parathyroidectomy for renal hyperparathyroidism. PATIENTS AND

methodsOne hundred and thirty patients (men = 75, female = 55) with end-stage renal disease on chronic dialysis and advanced secondary hyperparathyroidism who underwent parathyroidectomy between 2008 and 2014 at our center were analyzed retrospectively. Perioperative characteristics and short-term outcome were evaluated with respect to biological gender.

resultsNo differences could be demonstrated for patient demography, comorbidities and the perioperative course between males and females. Only preoperative calcium levels were lower in female than in male patients (2.3 ± 0.19 vs. 2.3 ± 0.26,

conclusionOverall, we could not demonstrate many significant differences between male and female patients with end-stage renal diseases, chronic dialysis and operated secondary hyperparathyroidism. Only preoperative electrolyte levels were higher in male than in female patients, and cerebrovascular complications developed more often in females than in males during long-term follow-up.
