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

Objective: The role of the default mode network (DMN) in the cognitive impairment experienced by patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) remains unknown. This study tested the hypothesis that the topological architecture of the DMN plays a key role in ESRD-related cognitive impairment. Methods: For this study, 43 ERSD patients receiving MHD and 41 healthy control (HC) volunteers matched for gender, age and education underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging examinations. DMN architecture was depicted by 20 selected DMN subregions. Graph theory approaches were applied to investigate multiple topological parameters within the DMN in resting state at the global, local and edge levels. Results: Globally, the MHD group exhibited topological irregularities as indicated by reduced values for the clustering coeffcient (C Conclusions: ESRD patients undergoing MHD showed local inefficiency, abnormal nodal centralities, and hypoconnectivity within the DMN, implying that the functional differentiation and local information transmission efficiency of the DMN are disturbed in ESRD. The disconnected RSFCs in the MTL subsystem likely facilitated topological reconfiguration in the DMN of ESRD patients, leading to impairments of multidomain neurocognition including memory and emotion regulation.
