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

aimThis systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to determine the impact of nutrition education on intradialytic weight gain (IDWG) in haemodialysis (HD) patients based on primary studies.

designSystematic review and meta-analysis.

methodsTen databases were searched for randomised controlled trials between November 1st and November 30th, 2022. A total of 20 studies met the inclusion criteria and were analysed.

resultsThe meta-analysis of 15 studies examining the effects of nutrition education on IDWG showed a statistically significant difference between the experimental and control groups (p < 0.0001). Subgroup analysis based on the duration of data collection indicated that this significant effect persisted in the 1st and 2nd months, as well as the 3rd and 4th months, but was not significant in the 5th and 6th months (p = 0.15). NO PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: No patient or public contribution was used.
