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 This retrospective study of 128 patients admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) who required renal replacement therapy (RRT) aimed to compare outcomes from 3 treatment approaches: intermittent hemodialysis (IHD), continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) with heparin, and CRRT with citrate anticoagulation. MATERIAL AND METHODS We analyzed data from 128 medical histories of patients treated in the Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care of the Regional Specialist Hospital (RSH) in Olsztyn between January 2003 and December 2011. Depending on the type of renal replacement therapy and anticoagulation used, the patients were assigned to one of the 3 cohorts: cohort I - 41 patients receiving IHD (IHD), cohort II - 40 patients receiving CRRT with heparin anticoagulation (unfractionated and low-molecular-weight heparin) (HEP), and cohort III - 47 patients receiving CRRT with citrate anticoagulation (CITR). RESULTS No statistically significant differences were found in ICU, 90-day, in-hospital, and long-term mortality (ie, at the end of the observation period [31/12/2020]), between IHD, HEP, and CITR cohorts (P=0.744, P=0.763, P=0.833, P=0.958, respectively). Patients in the IHD cohort were significantly more likely to be dependent on long-term dialysis treatment than all the other patients combined after discharge from the hospital (P=0.001). CONCLUSIONS The renal replacement modality and the type of anticoagulation did not affect mortality. However, IHD was associated with a higher percentage of long-term dialysis-dependent patients after hospital discharge.
