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

We present a single-center retrospective analysis of 228 Japanese patients with peritoneal dialysis, in which we examined whether reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is a risk factor for peritonitis development. Time-dependent multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazards models revealed that reduced LVEF (LVEF < 50% vs. preserved LVEF ≥ 50%, hazard ratio (HR) 2.10; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.16-3.82) was associated with peritonitis. Qualitatively, similar associations with reduced LVEF (< 50%) were observed for enteric peritonitis (adjusted HR 7.68; 95% CI 2.51-23.5) but not for non-enteric peritonitis (adjusted HR 1.15; 95% CI 0.54-2.44). Reduced LVEF is associated with a significantly higher risk of subsequent peritonitis, particularly enteric peritonitis. These results indicate that patients with reduced LVEF may be at risk of enteric peritonitis from bowel sources caused by intestinal involvement due to cardiac dysfunction.
