End-Stage Kidney Disease and Dialysis in Pregnancy.
Review in Advances in chronic kidney disease, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 26 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
End-stage kidney disease is associated with low fertility, with rates of conception in women on dialysis estimated at 1/100th of the general population. However, live birth rates are increasing over time in women on hemodialysis, whereas they remain lower and static in women on peritoneal dialysis. Intensification of hemodialysis, targeting a serum blood urea nitrogen <35 mg/dL or 36 hours of dialysis per week in women with no residual kidney function, is associated with improved live birth rates and longer gestational age. Even in intensively dialyzed cohorts, rates of prematurity and need for neonatal intensive care are high, upwards of 50%. Although women on peritoneal dialysis in pregnancy do not appear to be at increased risk of delivering preterm compared with those on hemodialysis, their infants are more likely to be small for gestational age. As such, hemodialysis has emerged as the preferred dialysis modality in pregnancy. Provision of specialized nephrology, obstetric, and neonatal care is necessary to manage these complex pregnancies and family planning counseling should be offered to all women with end-stage kidney disease.
