Prevalence, associated factors and cardiocerebral vascular prognosis of anaemia among patients on chronic haemodialysis in South Guangdong, China.

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
objectiveTo assess the prevalence, associated factors and cardiocerebral vascular prognosis of anaemia in patients undergoing haemodialysis.
methodsThis multicentre, retrospective, observational cohort study included patients on maintenance haemodialysis in South Guangdong, China. Anaemia in haemodialysis was defined as haemoglobin (Hb) <90 g/l. A proportion of patients were enrolled in a follow-up of the cardiocerebral vascular prognosis.
resultsA total of 1161 patients were enrolled and 938 were followed-up for cardiocerebral vascular events. Of 1161 patients, 250 (21.5%) had anaemia and 524 (45.1%) had an Hb level of 100-120 g/l. Adjusted multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that frequency of dialysis ≤ twice weekly, hypoalbuminaemia and use of unfractionated heparin were independent factors associated with anaemia. Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis for no myocardial infarction was 100%, 100%, 100% and 100% after 3, 6, 9 and 12 months, respectively, in patients with Hb < 90 g/l; compared with 97%, 95%, 93% and 93%, respectively, in patients with Hb ≥ 130 g/l. Adjusted Cox proportional hazards regression demonstrated that Hb ≥ 130 g/l was an independent risk factor for myocardial infarction.
conclusionAnaemia is highly prevalent among patients undergoing haemodialysis in South Guangdong and requires careful management.
