Associations between access to care and awareness of CKD.
Article in American journal of kidney diseases : the official journal of the National Kidney Foundation, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
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
backgroundMost individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the United States are unaware of their condition, creating challenges in implementing early interventions to delay disease progression. Whether characteristics expected to enhance health care access are associated with greater CKD awareness has not been studied adequately.
methodData from volunteer participants in the National Kidney Foundation's Kidney Early Evaluation Program (KEEP), 2000-2010, with presumed CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] <60 mL/min/1.73 m(2) or albumin-creatinine ratio >30 mg/g) were analyzed. Given that the diagnosis of CKD was based on a single measurement of kidney function, the diagnosis is presumed, but not confirmed. Associations of CKD awareness with measures of access to care (health insurance coverage, type of health insurance, prescription drug coverage, and self-reported level of difficulty obtaining care) were examined using logistic regression.
resultsOf 29,144 participants with CKD, 6,751 (23%) reported CKD awareness. No significant association was found between availability of health insurance or prescription drug coverage and CKD awareness; results did not vary by diabetic status or in analyses restricted to participants with eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m(2). Participants reporting extreme or some difficulty obtaining medical care were more likely than those reporting no difficulty to be aware of CKD (adjusted OR, 1.25; 95% CI, 1.05-1.50).
conclusionsMost KEEP participants with CKD are unaware of the condition, results that are not modified by the availability of health insurance or prescription drug coverage. The mechanisms underlying the association of perceived difficulty in access to care with greater CKD awareness require further study.
