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

BACKGROUND At present, there are few blood pressure variability (BPV)-related studies of elderly maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. This study aimed to compare the effects of long-term BPV on the 46-month survival rate of MHD patients aged <75 years and ≥75 years between 2000 and 2014, with follow-up until 2018. MATERIAL AND METHODS According to systolic blood pressure variability (SBPV) and diastolic blood pressure variability (DBPV), patients were divided into 4 groups: a low SBPV group (n=121), a high SBPV group (n=122), a low DBPV group (n=114), and a high DBPV group (n=112). RESULTS We included 243 patients in the study. All the patients were followed up for 46 months, and 59 patients (28 males) died during follow-up. The survival rate of patients in the high SBPV group was significantly lower than that of the low SBPV group (log rank P=0.049). No significant differences were observed between the high DBPV group and low DBPV group (log rank P=0.167). There were no significant differences in survival rates between the high SBPV group and low SBPV group among patients aged <75 years (log rank P=0.656), and among patients ≥75 years, the survival rate of the high SBPV group was significantly lower than that of the low SBPV group (log rank P=0.041). CONCLUSIONS Increased long-term SBPV in MHD patients is associated with a decrease in long-term survival rate, and patients ≥75 years are more susceptible to it.
