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

introductionPre-dilution online hemodiafiltration (Pre-HDF) is predominantly used in Japan, whereas post-dilution online HDF (Post-HDF) is more common in Europe. An asymmetric cellulose triacetate (ATA) membrane may improve biocompatibility. This study compared biocompatibility and solute removal performance between Pre- and Post-HDF using the ATA membrane.

methodsEight stable maintenance hemodialysis patients underwent both Pre- (60 L/session) and Post-HDF (12 L/session) using an ATA membrane. Blood flow rate was 250 mL/min, total dialysate flow rate was 500 mL/min, and treatment time was 4 h. Biocompatibility and solute removal parameters were evaluated.

resultsWhite blood cell and platelet counts showed mild decreases; inflammatory markers remained unchanged in both modalities. CD62P expression increased more in Post-HDF. Reduction rates of urea, creatinine, and α1-microglobulin were higher in Post-HDF, while β2-microglobulin was comparable. Albumin leakage was greater in Post-HDF.

conclusionsUsing the ATA membrane, Pre- and Post-HDF showed comparable biocompatibility, while Post-HDF provided superior solute removal performance.
