Hyperphosphatemia as a potential risk factor for arteriovenous fistula dysfunction: A retrospective study in hemodialysis patients.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe study investigates the relationship between Hyperphosphatemia and arteriovenous fistula dysfunction in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis.
methodsData were collected from patients who had their first arteriovenous fistula creation and regular maintenance hemodialysis between 2019 and 2023. Patients were divided into four groups based on serum phosphorus levels (<1.33 mmol/L, 1.33-1.61 mmol/L, 1.61-1.965 mmol/L, > 1.965 mmol/L). Statistical methods included Kaplan-Meier survival curves, Cox proportional hazards regression models, and Restricted Cubic Spline.
resultsThe study included 239 patients. Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that Hyperphosphatemia significantly correlated with arteriovenous fistula dysfunction (P = 0.0052). Cox univariate analysis showed phosphorus (HR = 3.16, P < 0.001) is risk factor of arteriovenous fistula dysfuntion. Multivariate Cox regression analysis further confirmed high phosphorus levels were an independent risk factor of AVF dysfuntion (P for trend<0.001). Restricted Cubic Spline showed a nonlinear relationship between phosphorus levels and arteriovenous fistula dysfunction (P for non-linearity = 0.024), with a cutoff point at 1.544 mmol/L (LR = 0.035).
conclusionHyperphosphatemia is an independent risk factor for arteriovenous fistula dysfunction, emphasizing the need for clinical practice to pay attention to the impact of mineral metabolism disorders on the integrity of arteriovenous fistula and to strengthen phosphate management.
