Placement of cuffed tunnelled permanent hemodialysis catheter in patients with end stage renal disease: A cross sectional study.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) is a significantly increasing condition warranting renal replacement therapy. Gaining vascular access for catheter placement for this procedure is of paramount importance. These can be done by temporary and permanent cuffed tunnelled catheters. The present study aims to analyze the outcome of permanent hemodialysis catheters and their efficacy in the case of patients suffering from end-stage renal disease. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 32 patients who underwent permanent tunnelled catheter intervention along with details of follow-up from January 1st, 2021 till December 31st, 2021. Results: Among 32 patients, the mean age of the patient was 50.25 ± 18.10 years with 62.5% females. The site of insertion was right 27(84.37%) and left internal jugular vein in 4 (12.50%) and 1 patient (3.12%) in the left common femoral vein. Bleeding the peri-catheter site was observed in 4 (12.5%), infection was found among 2 patients (6.25%), thrombosis in the catheter in 7 (21.87%) patients. Indication for the procedure was due to failure of arteriovenous fistula in 21 (65.62%), lack of maturation of the AVF in 9 (28.12%) and patients awaiting transplantation in 2 (6.25%). The mean months of follow-up of the patients were 5.9 months (SD 4.4 months, range 1 month-12 months). Total 25 (78.1%) of the catheters were patent till the time of follow-up. Seven (21.9%) of the patients required manipulation once after which they also had functioning permanent catheters. The mean month on which manipulation was required was 4.1 months (SD 2.3months, range one month to seven months). Conclusion: Permanent cuffed tunnelled catheter has good patency and can be an alternative to an arteriovenous fistula.
