Mechanical stress-related haemolysis in a paediatric haemodialysis patient.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Haemodialysis (HD) is a common kidney replacement therapy (KRT) used in the management of children with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). We describe the case of a 2-year-old child who developed mechanical intraluminal haemolytic anaemia secondary to the acute angulation of the HD line. In contrast to reports of arteriovenous fistula-associated haemolysis, onset was insidious in nature and detected through review of subtle serial biochemical and haematological changes. Development of hyperbilirubinaemia during HD was modest due to the partial clearance of bilirubin via HD-enabled diffusion. The only persistent and consistent marker was the post-HD rise in lactate dehydrogenase in association with decreasing haemoglobin. We propose that mechanical stress-induced haemolysis should be considered in children on HD who develop unexplained or persistent anaemia with resistance to increasing doses of iron and erythropoiesis-stimulating agent supplementation.
