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.

2 · The registry

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

Introduction: The phase angle (PhA) has been used as a nutritional marker and predictor of mortality in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD). The coronary artery calcium (CAC) score has shown to predict the incidence of acute myocardial infarction and death from cardiovascular disease in these patients. However, the association between PhA and CAC score in patients with PD is not well-established, which is the objective of this study. Materials and methods: Cross-sectional study with patients on PD, followed up at a University Hospital, between March 2018 and August 2019. PhA was evaluated by unifrequency bioimpedance (BIA). The CAC score was calculated based on cardiovascular computed tomography, considering positive when greater than or equal to 100 Agatston and negative when less than 100 Agatston. Results: We evaluated 44 patients on dialysis, with a mean age of 56 years and median time on dialysis therapy was 11.7 months. In the statistical analysis, a significant association was only observed between the CAC score and the PhA. Conclusion: The PhA is associated with a positive CAC score in patients with PD, and despite other factors, may be useful as a risk marker for coronary artery disease in this population.
