Unraveling the association between chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy and peritoneal Dialysis.

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
backgroundChronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) is a rare disease seen in the general population and has been reported as showing an increased incidence in the peritoneal dialysis (PD) population, as documented in case reports.
methodsWe conducted a case-control study using data from the Taichung Veterans General Hospital electric medical record database from the years 2010 to 2023. We defined cases as CIDP with End-stage kidney disease (ESKD) and controls as without CIDP. A logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the association between CIDP and dialysis modality, age, gender, dialysis duration, plasma potassium > 5.5 mEq/L and < 2.5 mEq/L, and intact parathyroid hormone (i-PTH) > 613 pg/mL.
resultsOur findings suggest that PD may be a risk factor in the ESKD population (Odds ratio: 5.125, C.I.: 1.078 ~ 24.372, p = 0.040) according to logistic regression analysis. Dialysis duration, gender, diabetes mellitus, HbA1c > 7%, hypokalemia, hyperkalemia, and hyperparathyroidism did not show an association with CIDP.
conclusionThere seems to be an association between PD and CIDP in this case-control study. Possible mechanisms may involve systemic inflammation induced by peritoneal dialysate exchange or the content of the dialysate. Further studies are still needed.
