Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in dialysis patients.
Article in International urology and nephrology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeThe aim of the study was to assess whether a history of dialysis is related to cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) attempts and survival to hospital admission in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA).
methodsThe databases of the POL-OHCA registry and of emergency medical calls in the Command Support System of the State of Emergency Medicine (CSS) were searched to identify patients with OHCA and a history of dialysis. A total of 264 dialysis patient with OHCA were found: 126 were dead on arrival of emergency medical services (EMS), and 138 had OHCA with CPR attempts. Data from the POL-OHCA registry for patients with CPR attempts, including age, sex, place of residence, first recorded rhythm, defibrillation during CPR, and priority dispatch codes, were collected and compared between patients with and without dialysis.
resultsCPR attempts by EMS were undertaken in 138 dialyzed patients (52.3%). The analysis of POL-OHCA data revealed no differences in age, sex, place of residence, first recorded rhythm, and priority dispatch codes between patients with and without dialysis. Defibrillation was less frequent in dialysis patients (P = 0.04). A stepwise logistic regression analysis revealed no association between survival to hospital admission and a history of hemodialysis (odds ratio = 1.12; 95% CI 0.74-1.70, P = 0.60).
conclusionsA history of dialysis in patients with OHCA does not affect the rate of CPR attempts by EMS or a short-term outcome in comparison with patients without dialysis. Defibrillation during CPR is less common in patients on dialysis than in those without.
