Prognostic Implication of Longitudinal Changes in Cardiothoracic Ratio and Aortic Arch Calcification in Hemodialysis Patients.
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Patients with end-stage renal disease have a high prevalence of cardiovascular disease. Chest radiography can be used to assess cardiothoracic ratio (CTR) and aortic arch calcification (AoAC). The aims of this longitudinal follow-up study were to investigate factors associated with changes in CTR and AoAC and understand whether these changes are associated with overall and cardiovascular mortality in hemodialysis (HD) patients. We enrolled 260 patients undergoing HD who had at least two available chest X-rays from 2008 to 2015. CTR and AoAC were assessed in each patient using measurements from baseline and annual chest X-rays. The CTR increased from 49.05% to 51.86% and the AoAC score increased from 3.84 to 9.73 over 7 years. The estimated slopes were 0.24 (
