The Correlation between Serum Sclerostin Level and Arterial Stiffness in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients.
Article in Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Objective: To study the correlation between serum sclerostin (SO) and arterial stiffness in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Methods: The study included 50 Parkinson's disease (PD) patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) for more than 6 months at the nephrology department of our hospital. Without regard for age, the eligible patients were assigned to a low PWV group and a high PWV group with brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (Ba PWV) of 1400 cm/s as the cutoff value. Patient characteristics such as age, gender, height, weight, BMI, smoking history, dialysis age, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), urea clearance index (Kt/V), residual renal function (RRF), and diabetes mellitus (DM) were analyzed. Biochemical indices for analysis include hemoglobin (Hb), albumin (ALB), total cholesterol (TC), urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (CREA), triglyceride (TG), uric acid (UA), parathyroid hormone (PTH), blood phosphorus(P), fasting blood glucose (GLU), corrective calcium (Ca), calcium-phosphorus product, low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C), SO, and arterial stiffness. Results: There were 9 males and 16 females in the low PWV group and 12 males and 13 females in the high PWV group. Statistical significance was absent in patient characteristics despite more males in the high PWV group ( Conclusion: The degree of vascular sclerosis is highly correlated with SO level in Parkinson's disease patients, which might provide a theoretical basis for the evaluation of cardiovascular illness in Parkinson's disease patients. High serum sclerostin level is a risk factor for deteriorated arterial stiffness. Given the limited sample size, the relevant results require further validation by expanding the sample size.
