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

Objective: To investigate the efficacy of sevelamer (SL) and calcium acetate (CA) in treating hyperphosphatemia in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) and their effects on calcium-phosphorus metabolism and levels of peripheral blood fetuin-A and fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23). Methods: A total of 92 ESRD patients attending the First Hospital of Zibo between January 2022 and December 2023 were enrolled. They were randomly assigned to either the CA group (46 cases) or the SL group (46 cases) using a random number table method. Patients in both groups received MHD and conventional treatment. Additionally, patients in the CA group were given CA, while those in the SL group were given SL, with the treatment continuing for 3 months. The outcome indicators were assessed and compared between the two groups. The primary outcome indicator was clinical efficacy. The secondary outcome indicators included calcium-phosphorus metabolism indicators (blood calcium, blood phosphorus, calcium-phosphorus product, and intact parathyroid hormone [iPTH]), coronary artery calcification score (CACs), serum biochemical indicators (including fetuin-A, FGF-23, and C-reactive protein [CRP]), and adverse reactions and cardiovascular events during the course of treatment. Results: There were no statistically significant differences in baseline data between the two groups ( Conclusion: SL demonstrates superior efficacy compared to CA in treating hyperphosphatemia in MHD patients. SL effectively regulates calcium-phosphorus metabolism, reduces CACs, regulates peripheral blood fetuin-A and FGF-23 levels, and leads to fewer adverse reactions. SL may be a preferred option for clinical management.
