A Therapeutic Extracorporeal Device for Specific Removal of Pathologic Asymmetric Dimethylarginine from the Blood.

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
introductionBlood levels of uremic toxin, asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), are strongly associated with mortality in sepsis, renal failure, and cardiovascular and renal disease patients.
methodsAn extracorporeal approach to reduce pathological ADMA was developed. The dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase (DDAH) was immobilized on agarose beads to prepare a cartridge. The efficacy of cartridge for ADMA lowering in blood was investigated.
resultsThe DDAH beads and cartridge reduced ADMA from solution or plasma. The magnitude of ADMA removal was dependent on the quantity of DDAH linked to the beads and the flow rate. When tested in association with plasmapheresis, the DDAH-cartridge was highly effective in ADMA removal from the blood and improved the arginine/ADMA ratio in a pig model.
conclusionA new, safe, and effective extracorporeal approach to lower ADMA was developed which may have application in improving outcomes in patients with vascular complications and risk of mortality associated with high ADMA.
