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: Protein energy wasting (PEW) is common in patients on hemodialysis, and its development may involve gut microbial dysbiosis. However, the exact relationship between the composition of different flora and the development of PEW remains unclear. Methods: This is an observational longitudinal study on 115 patients undergoing hemodialysis who were followed up for 1 year. All the patients were evaluated at baseline, and different microbiota compositions were determined. After a 1 year follow-up period, the correlations between clinical parameter variations and the relative abundance of different gut flora were assessed using Spearman correlation. Moreover, the associations of the abundance of different gut microbiota with decrease in lean tissue mass and the development of PEW were analyzed using ROC curve and logistical regression analyses. Results: We found that the relative abundances of Actinobacteria and Bifidobacteriaceae were significantly lower in patients with PEW than in those who did not develop PEW ( Conclusion: The present findings imply Actinobacteria and Bifidobacteriaceae may be potential markers for predicting skeletal muscle mass decrease and PEW development in patients on hemodialysis.
