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

Objective: Tunneled-cuffed catheters (TCCs) are frequently used for establishing hemodialysis access for maintenance hemodialysis in older patients with exhausted resources of peripheral vessels. Fibrin sheath formation around the catheter is one of the most common complications of long-term use of indwelling catheter, which may cause the malfunction of the catheter. In this study, we intend to compare the prognosis of two catheter replacement methods, Methods: A retrospective study was conducted with 52 patients who underwent a replacement of their TCCs. Among them, 27 cases had their TCC replaced by the modified method of replacement through a fibrin sheath crevice and were referred to as the sheath crevice group, while 25 cases underwent Results: There was no significant difference between the general data of the two groups. There was no massive blood loss during the replacement procedure. Neither were there cardiac tamponade, catheter-associated infections, or other complications. Follow-ups were made 1, 3, and 6 months after the replacement procedure. The sheath crevice group had higher catheter blood flow and Kt/V values at the 6-month follow-up than the Conclusion: The catheter replacement method of balloon dilation-assisted catheter insertion through a fibrin sheath crevice is safe and effective, resulting in better long-term catheter blood flow compared with that of
