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

objectiveThis study aimed to develop and validate a nomogram to predict the risk of peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis (PDAP) in patients undergoing peritopreneal dialysis.

methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data from 376 patients at Nanhai District People's Hospital in Foshan City, Guangdong Province, between December 2017 and December 2024. The dataset was randomly divided into a training set (n = 244) and a validation set (n = 132). Risk factors for PDAP were identified using Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) regression and logistic regression, and a predictive nomogram was developed and validated using R4.1.3. The model's performance was evaluated through receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test, decision curve analysis (DCA), and clinical impact curves (CICs).

resultsEight potential predictors were selected by LASSO regression analysis. Multivariate logistic regression analysis confirmed that age, dialysis duration, albumin, hemoglobin, β

conclusionThe proposed nomogram exhibited excellent predictive performance and clinical utility, providing a valuable tool for early identification and intervention in PDAP. Further external validation and prospective studies are recommended.
