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

Introduction: Oral anemia treatments are preferred by patients on home-based peritoneal dialysis (PD). We evaluated the effectiveness and safety of oral roxadustat in Chinese patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD)-associated anemia on PD. Methods: In this phase 4 study, patients with CKD-anemia on PD received roxadustat thrice weekly for 24 weeks. We assessed the proportion with hemoglobin ≥100 g/L at Weeks 20 and 24 (overall and stratified by type 2 diabetes mellitus [T2DM] vs. non-diabetes mellitus [DM]), quality of life changes according to the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Anemia (FACT-An), and 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36), and safety. Results: Overall, 195 patients (116 male [59.5%]; mean ± standard deviation age, 46.3 ± 12.3 years) were enrolled; 189 (96.9%) were erythropoiesis-stimulating agent-treated and 43 (22.1%) had T2DM. Baseline hemoglobin was 98.1 ± 10.7 g/L and was <80 g/L in 10 (5.1%). The mean (95% confidence interval) proportion who achieved a hemoglobin concentration ≥100 g/L was 85.1% (79.8%, 90.5%) (T2DM: 89.2% [78.5%, 99.9%]; non-DM: 84.0% [77.8%, 90.1%]). The change in Total FACT-An score (baseline to Week 24), but not SF-36 scores, was clinically significant (-6.2 [-9.0, -3.4]), with a greater decrease in the T2DM subgroup. Residual renal function declined slightly from baseline to Week 24 (-0.2 mL/min/1.73 m Conclusion: Roxadustat corrected anemia in Chinese patients with CKD on PD, irrespective of baseline T2DM. Adverse events were consistent with roxadustat's known safety profile and with PD patients' characteristics.
