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
introductionCardiovascular diseases are considered the major cause of death in dialysis patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Recently, intensive hemodialysis has increasingly used and replaced conventional hemodialysis. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of intensive hemodialysis on LVH regression and blood pressure control.
methodsThe present study is self-control, pre- and post-intervention clinical trial on hemodialysis ESRD patients with hypertension (52.5% female with a mean age of 55.55 ± 12.96), who were admitted to Imam Khomeini Hospitals, Golestan Ahvaz in 1396. All patients underwent intensive hemodialysis treatment 4 times a week for 2 months. 2-D color Doppler echocardiography was performed for all patients before the intervention and following 2 months of intensive hemodialysis. The results of chest echocardiographic were used to determine left ventricular thickness.
resultsIn this study, 40 patients with hypertension were studied. The results of this study showed a significant decrease (
conclusionBased on the results, it can be concluded that intensive hemodialysis resulted in improved LVH regression and blood pressure control, and fewer requirements for blood pressure-lowering medications.
