Ten-Year Single-Center Study Examining Patient Survival after Commencing Long-Term Peritoneal Dialysis.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 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
In patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), peritoneal dialysis (PD) is increasingly being adopted in developing nations due to its cost-effectiveness and advantages as a home-based treatment. However, the survival outcomes of chronic PD patients in Mexico, where the burden of ESKD is high, remain poorly understood. This study aimed to assess the survival experience of long-term PD patients and evaluate its determinants. A single-center cohort study collected clinical and epidemiological data for long-term PD initiations between February 2013 and January 2023. The analysis, which utilized Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazard regression methods, included data from 370 patients. The overall mortality rate was 4.7 per 1000 person-months, with a significant decrease in survival rates observed between months 24 and 36 post-PD initiation. Older age at PD initiation and the use of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis, as compared to the automated modality, were associated with an increased risk of mortality. The study provides valuable insights into the survival outcomes of chronic PD patients in Mexico and suggests the need to optimize treatment strategies to enhance long-term prognoses for patients with ESKD. Further research is needed to better understand the factors influencing survival in this population.
