Aldosterone Antagonists Reduce the Risk of Cardiovascular Mortality in Dialysis Patients: A Meta-Analysis

<div><i>Forest plots for adverse events. (a) Hyperkalemia; (b) nonphysiologic gynecomastia.</i> The Chi-squared test is a measurement of heterogeneity. P&lt;0.05 indicates significant heterogeneity. Squares = individual study point estimates. Horizontal lines = 95% CIs. Rhombus = summarized estimate and its 95% CI. Fixed: fixed effect model. Random: random effect model.</div>
