Effectiveness of blood volume change-guided ultrafiltration control (BV-UFC) in hemodialysis: a crossover comparative study.
Article in Clinical kidney journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Background and hypothesis: Intradialytic hypotension (IDH), a common hemodialysis (HD) complication, increases cardiovascular risks and affects prognosis. Rapid ultrafiltration (UF) is a key factor. The blood volume change-guided ultrafiltration control (BV-UFC) system, which adjusts UF rates based on real-time blood volume (BV) monitoring, aims to enhance hemodynamic stability and reduce IDH. Methods: A 6-week crossover trial compared BV-UFC and standard HD in reducing IDH. Patients underwent 2 weeks of each treatment. The primary outcome was the frequency of IDH episodes. Secondary outcomes were plasma refilling rate (PRR) and target UF volume achievement. Results: This study included 38 patients, with 31 patients completing the trial. The frequency of IDH episodes was significantly reduced in patients using the BV-UFC system ( Conclusion: The BV-UFC system effectively reduced the incidence of IDH by automatically adjusting the UF rate based on BV, without compromising treatment safety or UF volume. These findings suggest that BV-UFC can enhance hemodynamic stability and improve dialysis outcomes in patients undergoing HD (jRCT Study No. jRCT1062230034, registration date: 1 July 2023).
