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

backgroundThe aim was to evaluate the changes in the audiovestibular system in adult patients with the diagnosis of chronic renal failure who were treated with hemodialysis.

methodsThirty-five patients diagnosed with chronic renal failure and receiving hemodialysis treatment 3 days a week and 35 healthy individuals were tested with pure tone audiometry, video head impulse test, and post-head shake nystagmus test. Dizziness Handicap Inventory was applied to all participants.

resultsThe Dizziness Handicap Inventory scores of the patient groups are higher than the control groups (P=.001). In the video head impulse test, there is no statistically significant difference between the patient and control groups in terms of gain asymmetry. 17.1% of the patients had both left and right lateral saccades (P=.03). A statistically significant difference was also found after the post-head shake test (P=.025). In the patient group, an inverse relationship between the presence of left anterior right posterior saccades and blood urea nitrogen-creatinine ratio and a direct relationship between the presence of right anterior left posterior saccades and creatinine elevation were determined. The presence of saccades in the video head impulse test increased significantly as the disease duration of hemodialysis patients increased.

conclusionIt was determined that the overt and covert saccades in the video head impulse test increased significantly as the creatinine increased and the duration of the disease increased in the patients with chronic renal failure. The common clinical usage of video head impulse test in monitoring the vestibular side effects of creatinine elevation and disease duration in chronic renal failure patients may be possible with future studies.
