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

aimProper arteriovenous fistula (AVF) management is crucial to avoid AVF complications and prolong its useful life for maintenance haemodialysis (MHD).

designRetrospective cohort study.

methodsPatients on MHD who underwent AVF surgery at the Wuhan Third Hospital between January 2018 and July 2018.

resultsA total of 144 patients were included, with 56 in the integrated group and 88 in the routine group. There were no differences between the two groups in terms of sex (p = .61), age (p = .62) and type of primary kidney disease (p > .99). At 1 year, the integrated group had significantly fewer fistula-related complications than the routine group (3.6% versus. 23.9%, p < .001). AVF functional scores were lower in the integrated group compared with the routine group (0.1 ± 0.5 versus. 0.8 ± 0.8, p < .001). The pain scores were lower in the integrated group than in the routine group (1.2 ± 0.4 versus. 1.8 ± 0.9, p < .001).
