1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purposePeritoneal dialysis (PD)-related peritonitis and lower limb ulcer are the important complications in patients undergoing PD. Although the association between lower limb ulcer and peritonitis in patients undergoing PD is unclear, based on our clinical experience and the clinical importance of the complications in patients undergoing PD, we hypothesized that lower limb ulcer is associated with peritonitis in patients on PD. PATIENTS AND

methodsIn this single center, retrospective cohort study, we studied 87 patients who started undergoing PD at our hospital from April 2015 to March 2020. We compared these 8 patients with lower limb ulcer with the other 79 patients without lower limb ulcer. We compared between the patients in the objection period of this study about peritonitis using Log rank test, and used the unpaired

resultsThe period developed first peritonitis of the patients on PD with lower limb ulcer was significant shorter than those without lower limb ulcer in Log rank test (P = 0.011). The Fisher's exact test and unpaired

conclusionIn conclusion, lower limb ulcer may be associated with peritonitis in patients undergoing PD. Further large-scale, prospective studies are required to confirm these results.
