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

backgroundChronic kidney disease (CKD) patients are at higher risk for cardiac arrhythmias. The risk of arrhythmia may change with different treatment modalities. We proposed to compare the effects of varied therapy methods on myocardial repolarization parameters (Tp-e, QT, QTc intervals, Tp-e/QT, Tp-e/QTc ratios) and P-wave dispersion (PWD) in patients with CKD.

methodsThree groups were formed from the patients aged between 18 and 65 years, as Group 1 consisting of CKD patients receiving hemodialysis (HD) three times a week, Group 2 consisting of predialysis CKD patients and Group 3 consisting of CKD patients who underwent successful transplantation. All patients' basic demographic data, risk factors, and echocardiographic parameters were recorded, and electrocardiographic repolarization parameters and PWD were analyzed.

resultsThe PR, QT, and QTc intervals were significantly shorter in the transplantation group compared to the other groups (

conclusionWe found that the Tp-e interval, Tp-e/QT, Tp-e/QTc, and PWD were significantly higher in the predialysis CKD group, but the PR, QT, and QTc intervals were significantly shorter in the transplantation group compared to the other groups. The prognostic significance and prediction of these parameters in arrhythmic events in CKD patients requires further evaluation with long-time follow-up.
