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

In hemodialysis patients, blood pressure (BP) measured at the postdialysis period (POSBP) can be used to diagnose hypertension. However, the optimal time point for POSBP remains uncertain. This cross-sectional study evaluated 210 long-term dialysis patients (66.7% men; age = 56.9 ± 15.7 years), who underwent POSBP measurements at three time points [immediately after dialysis period ended (POSBP1); after blood return (POSBP2) and after fistula hemostasis or catheter sealing (POSBP3)] and home BP monitoring (HBPM) over one week. POSBP1, POSBP2, POSBP3 and HBPM values were 139.1 ± 22.4/73.2 ± 12.5, 142.8 ± 22.8/74.3 ± 12.3, 142.8 ± 21.8/74.0 ± 12.2 and 131.2 ± 21.2/77.9 ± 12.1 mmHg, respectively. Systolic POSBP3 and POSBP2 were significantly greater (p < 0.05) than systolic POSBP1. POSBP3 had the greatest correlation with HBPM, while elevated (>130/80 mmHg) POSBP3 showed the highest numerical accuracy (AUC [95% CI] = 0.696 [0.638-0.754]) and concordance (kappa coefficient = 0.41) with elevated HBPM (≥130/80 mmHg) compared with POSBP1 and POSBP2. These findings suggest that POSBP3 may be a preferable measurement for assessment of POSBP in hemodialysis patients.
