[Peritoneal dialysis impact on quality of life in elderly].
Article in Revista medica del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Nowadays elderly live longer but with more diseases and geriatric syndromes which can deteriorate their quality of life (QoL). Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a renal replacement therapy which seeks to prolong an improve QoL; however, this is uncertain in elderly. Therefore, comparing QoL before and after starting dialysis in this population may let us know if there is a benefit at this level. Objective: Identify the QoL that patients have before and after PD. Material and methods: Longitudinal, comparative, prospective cohort, before and after study. Elderly with End Stage Renal Disease in whom hospitalization for PD was indicated. QoL was measured the instrument KDQOL SF 1.3. before and after 2 months of PD. Statistical Analysis: T paired test was performed with the basal value of QoL and after. Risks with 95% confidence intervals and X2 were obtained between the basal characteristics and the dependent variable of QoL. Results: 21 patients. After 2 months the QoL had an increment in comparison to basal QoL, but with no statistical significance (63.47 [SD 16.63] Vs 56.83 [16.01], P= 0.22. In the 7th decade PD increased QoL by 13.01 points (P= 0.04). Conclusions: PD increases QoL in the 7th decade.
