Sustained Low-Efficiency Dialysis is Associated with Worsening Cerebral Edema and Outcomes in Intracerebral Hemorrhage.

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/
objectivesWe postulated that renal replacement therapy (RRT) in ICH patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with increased frequency and size of perihematomal edema (PHE) expansion and worse patient outcomes.
methodsThe Get With the Guidelines-Stroke Registry was queried for all patients admitted with ICH (N = 1089). Secondary causes, brainstem ICH, and initial HV < 7 cc were excluded. We identified patients with advanced CKD with and without RRT following admission for ICH. ABC/2 formula was used to measure hematoma volume (HV) and PHE. Patient outcomes were 30-day mortality, 90-day modified Rankin Scale score, and discharge disposition. We used propensity scores and optimal matching to adjust for multiple covariates.
resultsAt 48 h post-ICH, PHE expansion was a significant predictor of poor patient outcomes in our cohort. Patients with CKD who received sustained low-efficacy dialysis (SLED) treatment had larger 48 h PHE growth compared to both untreated CKD group (average treatment effect (ATE), 11.5; 95% CI, 4.9-18.1; p < 0.01) and all untreated patients (ATE, 7.43; 95% CI, 4.7-10.2; p < 0.01). Moreover, patients with RRT had significantly worse functional and mortality outcomes.
conclusionsSLED treatment in ICH patients with CKD was associated with significant increase in rate and frequency of PHE expansion. Absolute increase in PHE during 48-h post-ICH was associated with increased mortality and worse functional outcomes. Further prospective and multicenter evaluation is needed to differentiate the effects of RRT on hematoma dynamics and patient outcomes from those attributed to CKD.
