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.

Abstract

Background: Treating hyperphosphatemia is a tenet of dialysis care. This trial assessed the safety and efficacy of tenapanor for the management of hyperphosphatemia. Methods: In this 52-week phase 3 study (NCT03427125), participants receiving maintenance dialysis with both hyperphosphatemia (serum phosphate 6.0-10.0 mg/dl) and a 1.5 mg/dl increase after phosphate binder washout were randomized (3:1) to tenapanor 30 mg twice daily for 26 weeks (randomized treatment period) or sevelamer carbonate (52-week safety control). Participants completing 26 weeks of treatment with tenapanor were rerandomized (1:1) to tenapanor or placebo for 12 weeks (randomized withdrawal period), and were eligible to enter the 14-week safety extension period. With input from the US Food and Drug Administration, the primary efficacy end point was the difference in the change in serum phosphate from the end of the randomized treatment period to the end of the randomized withdrawal period, among participants who achieved ≥1.2 mg/dl decrease in serum phosphate during the randomized treatment period (efficacy analysis set). Efficacy was also evaluated in the intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis set. Results: Of 564 eligible participants randomized to receive tenapanor ( Conclusions: Tenapanor reduced serum phosphate concentrations and maintained control of serum phosphate in participants receiving maintenance dialysis, with an acceptable safety and tolerability profile.
