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

Patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (HD) face a substantially elevated risk of all-cause mortality, yet robust tools for individualized risk stratification remain limited. This multicenter study developed a predictive model integrating dynamic autonomic nervous system (ANS) markers - heart rate variability (HRV) and skin sympathetic nerve activity (SKNA) - with clinical factors to assess mortality risk. We enrolled 198 HD patients from two Chinese centers between 2021 and 2023, recording HRV/SKNA parameters at baseline, 30 min, and 240 min into dialysis. Over a median follow-up of 34 months, the all-cause mortality rate was 17.7%. Ninety-one baseline features were included in the LASSO-regression model. The final multivariable logistic regression model incorporated six variables (diabetes mellitus, DBP
