Eosinophilic Reaction at the Time of Catheter Insertion Predicts Survival in Patients Initiating Peritoneal Dialysis.

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
introductionDespite excellent biocompatibility, insertion of silicone peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheters can induce minor foreign body reaction, affecting long-term patient outcomes. We evaluated the effect of eosinophilic reaction associated with PD catheter insertion on outcomes of patients initiating PD.
methodsEosinophilic reaction to PD catheter insertion was defined as the ratio of peripheral blood eosinophil count at 1 week after insertion (E1W) to pre-insertion eosinophil count (E0), and the association of E1W/E0 with technique survival, peritonitis-free survival, and heart failure (HF)-related hospitalization-free survival was analyzed.
resultsThis retrospective cohort study included 116 patients (89 male patients) who underwent PD catheter insertion between January 2008 and June 2018 (61.3 ± 12.9 years). The follow-up duration was 46.2 (23.8-75.3) months. E1W was significantly higher than E0 (median, 333 vs. 234/μL, p < 0.001), with a median E1W/E0 of 1.54. The log-rank test showed that technique survival, peritonitis-free survival, and HF-related hospitalization-free survival were significantly better in patients with E1W/E0 < 1.54 than in those with E1W/E0 ≥ 1.54 (p = 0.002, <0.001, and <0.001, respectively). By the Cox regression analysis adjusted for age, sex, the Charlson comorbidity index, the estimated glomerular filtration rate, and the geriatric nutritional risk index, E1W/E0 remained a significant risk factor for technique failure, peritonitis, and hospitalization for HF (hazard ratio (HR) 1.68, p = 0.01; HR 2.19, p < 0.001; HR 2.15, p < 0.001, respectively).
conclusionEosinophilic reaction at the time of PD catheter insertion is a novel marker that may predict outcomes in patients initiating PD.
