The effect of hemodialysis with cool dialysate on nausea in hemodialysis patients: A randomized clinical trial.
Article in Health science reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background and Aims: Experiencing nausea leads to decreased self-esteem and social isolation in hemodialysis patients and affects all aspects of their quality of life. Nausea and vomiting make hemodialysis unpleasant for patients leading to premature termination of hemodialysis. Therefore, based on this necessity, the present study was conducted to determine the effect of hemodialysis with cool dialysate on nausea in hemodialysis patients. Methods: In this clinical trial, 60 eligible patients receiving hemodialysis were randomly assigned to the control (30 participants) and intervention (30 participants) groups. In the control group, the patients received standard hemodialysis (37°C) for three sessions. Simultaneously, patients in the intervention group received hemodialysis with a cold solution (of 36°C) for three sessions. The patients' nausea and shivering rates were measured using the visual analog scale and the shivering standard assessment scale, respectively. Both groups were evaluated before and after 1 week of intervention. The study did not include blinding. The trial has been registered in the Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials (IRCT) with the number IRCT20200530047597N1. The present study was financially supported by Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences, Kermanshah, Iran (no. 990220). Data were analyzed using SPSS-25 software. Findings: The independent Conclusion: According to the results of this study, it can be stated that the use of cold hemodialysis to control nausea in patients undergoing hemodialysis requires further studies and can be recommended as a nonpharmacological treatment to manage the treatment costs in case of efficiency.
