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

Most end-stage renal disease patients experience a reduction in blood pressure during their hemodialysis session compared to predialysis. Surprisingly, a small subset of patients will experience an unusual physiological response to dialysis that results in a paradoxical increase in blood pressure. We discuss a case that involved an exaggerated elevation in blood pressure, ultimately requiring immediate cessation of dialysis and admission to the intensive care unit for intravenous treatment of a hypertensive emergency. This case serves as a framework to introduce the infrequently discussed concept of intradialytic hypertension. The underlying pathogenesis is poorly understood with multiple theoretical etiologies including activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, imbalances in circulating levels of endothelium-derived mediators, clearance of antihypertensive medications, increased cardiac output, and changes in arterial thickness. It is important to be cognizant of this phenomenon as emerging evidence suggests that patients with any elevation in blood pressure during hemodialysis have increased rates of both short-term and long-term mortality.
