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

Education services for Stage-IV chronic kidney disease patients were added in 2010 as a Part B covered benefit under the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act. Desired outcomes include early pursuit of kidney transplantation by more patients and reduction of racial disparities in access to transplantation. During 2005-2007, a United States Renal Data System (USRDS) special study surveyed 1123 patients in a national cohort who had recently started dialysis, identified themselves as black or white, and were reported by their physician as potentially eligible transplant candidates. Patients were asked if kidney transplantation had been discussed with them before they initiated renal replacement therapy, and survey responses were linked with subsequent wait listing and transplant events in USRDS registry files. Kaplan-Meier analyses showed a significant association between early transplant awareness and subsequent wait listing. Adjusted Cox models showed a significant race/early transplant awareness interaction, however, with the impact of early awareness on wait listing much stronger for whites. Ongoing support and education about kidney transplantation for patients after dialysis start could help to build on early education and foster greater quality improvement in patient outcomes.
