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

objectiveTo compare the dialysis efficiency parameters between new single-needle dialysis and conventional double-needle dialysis and to explore the optimal prescription parameters for single-needle hemodialysis.

methodsThis study involved a prospective, cross-over design. Eight patients were randomly divided into two cohorts, which received the appropriate treatment. Relevant clinical data and dialysis-related parameters were collected for further analysis.

resultsEach of the patients enrolled in this study underwent nine sessions of single-needle dialysis and three sessions of double-needle dialysis. The average blood flow after 4, 4.5, and 5 h of single-needle dialysis was significantly lower (p < 0.001) than that with double-needle dialysis for the equivalent times. The online Kt/V value measured after 4 h of single-needle dialysis was significantly lower than that with 4 h of double-needle dialysis (p < 0.001). When replacing the dialyzer with a high-flux dialyzer (FX800) and extending the dialysis time to 5 h, there was no difference in the online Kt/V values (p = 0.341). There was also no difference in the ultrafiltration volume between single-needle and double-needle dialysis for the equivalent times. The calculation of the Kt/V and urea reduction rate (URR) showed that there was no difference between 5 h of single-needle dialysis and conventional double-needle dialysis (p > 0.05).

conclusionsThe new modified single-needle system is safe and effective to support the dialysis treatment of maintenance hemodialysis patients. When adjusting the dialysis prescription to a high-flux dialyzer and extending the dialysis time to 5 h, it can achieve dialysis efficiency equivalent to that of conventional 4 h double-needle dialysis.
