Impact of renal replacement therapy modality on coagulation and platelet function in critically ill patients: A prospective observational study.
Observational study in Artificial organs, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundRenal replacement therapy (RRT) may affect coagulation and platelet function in critically ill patients. However, the mechanism and the difference in the impact on coagulation between intermittent hemodialysis (iHD) and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate and compare the impact of iHD and CRRT on coagulation and platelet function.
methodsCritically ill patients undergoing RRT were classified into the iHD group or the CRRT group. After the first blood sampling, patients underwent either a single session of hemodialysis or 48 h of CRRT, then a second blood sample was taken. Rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM), platelet aggregometry and conventional coagulation tests were performed. The primary outcome was a change in extrinsically activated ROTEM (EXTEM) clotting time (CT).
results60 dialysis sessions from 56 patients were finally included, with 30 dialysis sessions per group. EXTEM CT was prolonged significantly after dialysis in the iHD group (90 [74, 128] vs. 74 [61, 91], p < 0.001), but did not change in the CRRT group (94.4 ± 29.4 vs. 91.6 ± 22.9, p = 0.986). The platelet aggregation did not change after both iHD and CRRT. A change in EXTEM CT was significantly greater in the iHD group compared to the CRRT group (p = 0.006). The difference in the incidence of bleeding events was insignificant between the two groups (p = 0.301).
conclusionsEXTEM CT was significantly prolonged after iHD, but this change was not shown after CRRT. Platelet function was not affected by both dialysis modalities.
