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

Peritoneal fibrosis (PF) is the most important complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD) that may arise among patients receiving continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). PF is a complex process, and many factors contribute to the formation of fibrosis. PD solutions with high glucose content, chronic inflammation, inflammatory cytokines, angiogenesis, and mesothelial to mesenchymal transition (MMT) are factors contributing to the fibrosis of the peritoneum. These factors, as well as stress-induced fibrosis, are going to be discussed further in this article. Although most experimental models are promising in preventing or delaying PD-related fibrosis, most of these recommended treatment options require further research. The lack of sufficient data from real PD patients and many inconclusive data make clinicians depend on conservative treatment. New therapeutics are indeed required for the management of patients undergoing PD to prevent the dreaded complication that may arise from continuous PD. Newer PD solutions are needed to improve survival and minimize the complication associated with PD. Recently, newer PD solutions have been shown to improve patient survival and peritoneal viability and reduce this complication that may arise as a result of continuous PD.
