Reducing intradialytic hypotension with intermittent pneumatic compression during haemodialysis: a randomized controlled trial.
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 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
Background: Patients undergoing maintenance haemodialysis (MHD) suffer from intradialytic hypotension (IDH), leading to a higher risk of mortality and hospitalization. Intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) may be a potential intervention to prevent a decrease in blood pressure during haemodialysis (HD). However, evidence about the effects of IPC on intradialytic haemodynamic changes in patients undergoing MHD is lacking. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of IPC on intradialytic haemodynamic changes in patients undergoing MHD. Methods: In this randomized clinical trial, 30 patients undergoing MHD were randomly assigned to the IPC group ( Results: A total of 26 participants completed the study. The adherence of IPC was 94.2%. The changes in haemodynamic indicators (i.e. blood pressure and heart rate) from pre-dialysis were significantly lower in the IPC group than in the control group at all time points during dialysis ( Conclusion: Intradialytic IPC promotes haemodynamic indicators and reduces IDH occurrence in patients undergoing MHD. The compliance and safety of intradialytic IPC were satisfactory. Intradialytic IPC could be implemented in clinical settings to maintain haemodynamic stability during HD.
