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

backgroundAnalyzing novel pulse wave parameters, we aimed to study specific changes in pulse waveform under high flow conditions in three collectives (i.e., healthy individuals and two collectives of patients with kidney disease and different levels of comorbidities): First, under reactive hyperemia in order to assess endothelial function. Second, close to an ateriovenous fistula in order to assess fistula function.

methodsSubjects underwent local peripheral tonometric pulse wave analysis with the SphygmoCor® device and duplex sonography to assess flow velocity (peak V

resultsA total of 108 subjects were evaluated (23 healthy and 85 with fistula in two distinct collectives n = 39/45, measurements under reactive hyperemia in 62 individuals). Significant increments in the novel pulse parameters were observed under reactive hyperemia and near a fistula and were found to correlate with corresponding changes in flow velocity (reactive hyperemia: ∆A2 and ∆m2/V

conclusionDetection of changes in pulse waveform under high flow conditions is potentially a new clinical application to characterize endothelial function and the functional status of ateriovenous fistulas.
