Acid-base balance in hemodialysis patients in everyday practice.
Article in Renal failure, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
introductionAbnormalities in blood bicarbonates (HCO MATERIAL AND
methodsWe enrolled 75 stable hemodialysis patients (mean age 65.5 years, 34 women), from a single Department of Nephrology. We assessed blood pressure, and acid-base balance parameters before and after mid-week hemodialysis session.
resultsWe found significant differences in pH, HCO
conclusionsDespite the improvement in hemodialysis techniques, acid-base balance still remains a challenge. The individual selection of bicarbonate in bath, based on previous single tests, does not improve permanently the acid-base balance in the population of hemodialysis patients. New guidelines how to correct acid-base disorders in hemodialysis patients are needed to have less 'acidotic' patients before hemodialysis and less 'alkalotic' patients after the session.
