Prescribing and peritoneal dialysis.
Review in Australian prescriber, 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
Peritoneal dialysis is a home-based therapy for patients with end-stage kidney disease. It is less efficient in removing solutes and fluid than haemodialysis but offers more flexibility and independence. Peritoneal transport characteristics affect the dialysis prescription. The timing of drug administration is independent of the dialysis process except for the administration of intraperitoneal antibiotics. Dose reductions should follow current recommendations for patients with kidney disease. Fluid overload is common in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis. Residual kidney function can ameliorate this problem and needs to be preserved. Dialysis solutions with high glucose concentrations contribute to adverse metabolic effects. Peritoneal dialysis-related catheter complications and infections may require patients to transition to haemodialysis. Antifungal prophylaxis needs to be co-administered for the duration of antibiotic courses for any indication to reduce the risk of fungal peritonitis. Close communication with the patient's supervising dialysis unit is required.
