Higher-order clinical risk factor interaction analysis for overall mortality in maintenance hemodialysis patients.
Article in Therapeutic advances in chronic disease, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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 AND
aimsIn Taiwan, approximately 90% of patients with end-stage renal disease receive maintenance hemodialysis. Although studies have reported the survival predictability of multiclinical factors, the higher-order interactions among these factors have rarely been discussed. Conventional statistical approaches such as regression analysis are inadequate for detecting higher-order interactions. Therefore, this study integrated receiver operating characteristic, logistic regression, and balancing functions for adjusting the ratio in risk classes and classification errors for imbalanced cases and controls using multifactor-dimensionality reduction (MDR-ER) analyses to examine the impact of interaction effects between multiclinical factors on overall mortality in patients on maintenance hemodialysis. METERIALS AND
methodsIn total, 781 patients who received outpatient hemodialysis dialysis three times per week before 1 January 2009 were included; their baseline clinical factor and mortality outcome data were retrospectively collected using an approved data protocol (201800595B0).
resultsConsistent with conventional statistical approaches, the higher-order interaction model could indicate the impact of potential risk combination unique to patients on maintenance hemodialysis on the survival outcome, as described previously. Moreover, the MDR-based higher-order interaction model facilitated higher-order interaction effect detection among multiclinical factors and could determine more detailed mortality risk characteristics combinations.
conclusionTherefore, higher-order clinical risk interaction analysis is a reasonable strategy for detecting non-traditional risk factor interaction effects on survival outcome unique to patients on maintenance hemodialysis and thus clinically achieving whole-scale patient care.
