Remote and home-based management for maintenance peritoneal dialysis patients: a retrospective cohort study using internet hospital and Four-Party Linkage models.
Observational study in BMC nephrology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
objectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness of the remote management based on the Internet Hospital and Family-Sicked Bed strategy under the Four-Party Linkage model among patients with maintenance peritoneal dialysis (PD).
methodsBao'an People's Hospital (Group) utilized its internet hospital platform to conduct a retrospective cohort observational study on the Remote Management (RM) of PD patients. The study further establisheda four-party collaborative disease management model comprising "residents-communities-community health centers-the hospital". A total of 150 insured patients were randomly assigned into three groups-Non-RM-PD group, RM-PD group, and Family-Sicked Bed group-using the random number table method. After a six-month intervention period, clinical indicators across the groups were compared, and analyses were conducted on time consumption, economic costs, as well as the potential benefits for patients, healthcare providers, and society in each group.
resultsThe clinical outcomes, including hospitalization rates, blood pressure levels, the proportion of patients requiring antihypertensive medications, the number of antihypertensive agents used, fluid overload, edema, hypokalemia, peritonitis incidence, and the rate of Kt/V meet the standard, demonstrated that RM-PD group and Family-Sicked Bed group were superior to the Non RM-PD group(P < 0.05). Multidimensional improvements were observed in the RM-PD and Family-Sickbed groups, such as enhanced quality of home-based PD, improved work efficiency of healthcare staff, greater social benefits, and reduced economic burden on patients. The Non RM-PD group had the highest total annual medical costs after reimbursement, whereas the Family-Sicked Bed group had the lowest (mean ± SD)(Non RM-PD = 39,383 ± 2678, RM-PD = 34,369 ± 2898, Family-Sicked Bed = 25,250 ± 2763, based on Chinese Yuan CNY, P < 0.05).
conclusionWithin the 6-month follow-up period of this study, remote management supported by the internet hospital and Family-Sicked Bed management under the Four-Party Linkage model have demonstrated effectiveness in PD patients; their long-term sustainability requires further verification with extended follow-up. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
