Effects of combined haemodialysis-haemoadsorption therapy in maintenance haemodialysis patients: study protocol for a multicentre, open-label, randomised, parallel controlled trial.
Article in BMJ open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05639010 (A Multi-center, Open-label, Randomized Trial of Hemodialysis Plus Hemoperfusion on Blood β2-microglobulin), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
introductionHaemodialysis (HD) is an essential treatment for end-stage renal disease patients to improve their quality of life. However, conventional HD may not effectively remove medium and large molecules and protein-bound toxins, leading to the occurrence of various complications. Haemoadsorption (HA), on the other hand, can address this limitation. Therefore, a multicentre, open-label, randomised, parallel controlled study will be conducted to compare HA combined with HD (HAHD) with HD alone in maintenance haemodialysis (MHD) patients. The primary endpoint is the change in serum β2-MG, PTH and CRP values. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: We plan to enrol 410 MHD patients from 10 participating medical centres in Shanghai. Patients will experience a 4-week washout period and a 52-week observation period. After the washout period, the eligible patients will be randomised in a 1:1 ratio to the two groups: the control group, 3 times/week conventional HD treatment; and the experiment group, 3 times/week conventional HD treatment+1 time/week HA treatment. The baseline and follow-up data at 0, 4, 12, 24, 36 and 52 weeks were collected from both groups, including the following: medical history, routine physical examination, dialysis regimen, laboratory tests, dialysis adequacy as defined by standard Kt/V, chest X-ray, ECG, cardiac ultrasound and three scales. Comorbidities, combined medications and adverse events will also be captured. The primary outcomes will include change in serum β2-MG, PTH and CRP values. Secondary outcomes will include change values for serum protein-bound toxins, improvement in patient quality of life, sleep disturbance and pruritus. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: The protocol has been approved by the Ethics Committees of 10 participating medical centres. Shanghai Changhai Hospital Ethics Committee will oversee the study. The results will be presented at national and international academic meetings, and publications will be submitted to peer-reviewed journals. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT05639010.
