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

introductionDifferent uremic solutes have varying degrees of clearances owing to different chemical properties and the pathological and physiological changes in the kidneys and peritoneum.

methodsThe 5-year time profiles of renal, peritoneal, and total clearances of creatinine, urea nitrogen (UN), uric acid (UA), trimethylamine <sc>n</sc>-oxide (TMAO), phosphate, beta-2-microglobulin (β2-MG), interleukin-6 (IL-6), indoxyl sulfate (IS), and p-cresol sulfate (PCS) were investigated in 64 peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. The patients were divided into an early start and a late start group according to baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate to investigate the effect of dialysis initiation timing on uremic solutes clearances. Patients were also divided into incremental peritoneal dialysis (IPD) and full-dose PD groups to investigate the impact of PD strategy on uremic solutes clearances.

resultsPeritoneal clearances of creatinine, UN, UA, and phosphate increased over time, while the peritoneal clearance of IL-6 showed a downward trend. The peritoneal clearances of TMAO, β2-MG, IS, and PCS did not change significantly. Patients in early start group showed a lower level of variation and a higher average of renal clearances. IPD patients had a higher level of total clearances of uremic solutes than full-dose PD patients in the first 3 years after PD initiation.

conclusionIn a long-term follow-up period, the peritoneal clearance of water-soluble small solutes increased over time, but that of protein-bound toxins and middle molecules did not. Initiating PD when residual kidney function remains at a relatively high level and performing IPD may better improve the efficiency of PD and help preserve the renal clearances of uremic solutes.
