Longer serum phosphorus time in range associated with lower mortality risk among peritoneal dialysis patients: a multicenter retrospective cohort study.
Article in BMC nephrology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundRelationship between serum phosphorus time in range and mortality risk in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients remains uncertain. We aimed to evaluate the association between serum phosphorus time in range and all-cause mortality in Chinese PD population.
methodsThis was a multicenter, retrospective, cohort study of 1,915 patients collected from January 2008 to October 2020 in 4 Chinese centers. Serum phosphorus time in range was estimated as the months during the first year that a patient's serum phosphorus level was within the target range (defined as 1.13-1.78 mmol/L). The primary outcome was all-cause mortality. The secondary outcomes were cardiovascular (CV) mortality and PD withdrawal. Cox proportional hazards regression model with comprehensive adjustments was used to assess the association.
resultsThe primary outcome occurred in 249 (13.0%) PD patients over a median follow-up of 28 months. Overall, the serum phosphorus time in range was negatively associated with all-cause mortality (per 3-month increments, adjusted HR [aHR], 0.83; 95%CI: 0.75-0.92), CV mortality (per 3-month increments, aHR, 0.87; 95%CI: 0.77-0.99), and PD withdrawal (per 3-month increments, aHR, 0.89; 95%CI: 0.83-0.95). Competing-risk model showed that the relationship of serum phosphorus time in range with all-cause mortality remained stable. None of the variables including demographics, history of diabetes and CV disease, as well as several PD-related and clinical indicators modified this association.
conclusionsPD patients with longer serum phosphorus time in range in the first year was negatively associated with all-cause mortality and CV mortality. Our findings highlight the importance of maintaining serum phosphorus levels within 1.13-1.78 mmol/L for PD patients.
