Risk Factors for Peritoneal Dialysis-Associated Peritonitis Due to Home-Based Operation Management: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Observational study in Journal of clinical nursing, 2025. 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
aimThis study aimed to explore the risk factors related to home-based operation management leading to the occurrence of peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis (PDAP).
designAn observational research was conducted.
methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted among patients with maintenance peritoneal dialysis (PD) between 1 January 2019 and 31 December 2022. The patients were grouped according to the occurrence of PDAP. General characteristics and home operational data were collected and logistic regression analysis was performed to identify independent risk factors for PDAP associated with home operations. This study complied with the Appendix S1.
resultsOf 458 PD patients included in this study, 82 were in the peritonitis group. Their average age was 53.34 ± 13.62 years, and the average dialysis vintage was 35.57 ± 32.74 months, with males accounting for 54.6%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age; primary disease, such as diabetes mellitus; dialysis vintage; improper storage of dialysis fluid; failure to verify the quality of protective-caps with povidone-iodine; and improper handwashing were risk factors of PDAP. Daytime ambulatory PD mode was significantly negatively associated with PDAP.
conclusionImproper storage of dialysis fluid, failure to check the quality of protective-caps and improper handwashing at home are independent risk factors for PDAP caused by home-based operation management. Nurses should strengthen relevant training or retraining to address this. IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PROFESSION: These findings serve to highlight the key areas for training in PD management and aim to empower patients to effectively conduct self-management practices. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: We appreciate the patient's understanding and support.
