Pro-inflammatory cytokines as potential predictors for intradialytic hypotension.
Article in Renal failure, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
backgroundIntradialytic hypotension (IDH) is a common complication in maintaining hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Immune activation might be part of the mechanisms. However, the association between pro-inflammatory cytokines and blood pressure (BP) has not been deeply explored. So we aim to evaluate the potential role of pro-inflammatory cytokines in IDH.
methodsMHD patients starting hemodialysis before January 2016 were enrolled in our retrospective study. Patients' characteristics, laboratory results, and intradialytic BP were collected. IDH was defined as nadir systolic BP ≤ 90 mmHg during hemodialysis. The definition of IDH group was that those who suffered from more than one hypotensive event during one month after the enrollment (10% of dialysis treatments). Spearman correlation analysis and logistic regression were employed to explore the relationship between pro-inflammatory cytokines and IDH.
resultsAmong 390 patients, 72 were identified with IDH (18.5%). High levels of serum tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) were observed in the IDH group (
conclusionPro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α and IL-1β) could be potential predictors for IDH.
