Effect of peritoneal dialysate on bioelectrical impedance analysis variability in pediatric patients receiving peritoneal dialysis.
Article in Pediatric nephrology (Berlin, Germany), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundPrevious adult studies have yielded conflicting results regarding whether the presence (D +) or absence (D-) of peritoneal dialysate affects the accuracy of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) measurements. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the accuracy of BIA data varies between D + and D- measurements in children.
methodsThis cross-sectional study recruited chronic kidney disease stage 5 patients aged 3 to 18 years who received peritoneal dialysis. Body composition was assessed by multifrequency BIA, and values were compared between D + and D- measurements using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC).
resultsFifty paired BIA measurements were collected from 18 patients with a mean age of 13.6 ± 4.1 years and a mean dialysate fill volume of 1,006 ± 239.7 ml/m
conclusionsA total of 94.1% of BIA parameters exhibited excellent correlations between D + and D- measurements, especially patients older than 10 years. We recommend that BIA measurements be collected from children regardless of the presence of peritoneal dialysate.
