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

Background: Neurovascular coupling (NVC), as indicated by a comprehensive analysis of the amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF) and cerebral blood flow (CBF), provides mechanistic insights into neurological disorders. Patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD) often face cognitive impairment, the causes of which are not fully understood. Methods: ALFF was derived from functional magnetic resonance imaging, and CBF was quantified using arterial spin labeling in a cohort comprising 58 patients with PD, 60 patients with HD and 62 healthy controls. Voxel-based global analysis for both ALFF and CBF, alongside region-based analyses of ALFF-CBF coupling coefficients, were conducted. Additionally, the study explored the correlation between clinical laboratory indices and imaging metrics. Results: Compared with HC, NVC was reduced in the bilateral medial superior frontal gyrus (SFGmed), insula, posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) and caudate (CAU) among dialysis patients. Furthermore, the PD group exhibited lower NVC in the bilateral SFGmed, bilateral PCC and left CAU compared with the HD group. Within the PD group, sodium level was negatively correlated with the ALFF-CBF coupling coefficient in the right insula. Additionally, a positive correlation emerged between the ALFF-CBF coupling coefficient in bilateral SFGmed and the dialysis adequacy. Conclusion: While Montreal Cognitive Assessment scores did not significantly differ between patients with PD and HD, PD group demonstrated poorer NVC in the bilateral SFGmed, bilateral PCC and left CAU. Sodium level and dialysis adequacy may affect NVC in patients with PD.
