Hemodialysis Patients' Information and Associated Characteristics.
Article in Materia socio-medica, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
introductionof this study was to explore characteristics associated with hemodialysis patients' degree of information. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe sample of the study included 650 patients undergoing hemodialysis. For data collection a questionnaire specially designed for the needs of the research was used. More specifically, socio-demographic, clinical and other patients' characteristics were associated with the degree of information as it was reported by patients.
resultsof the 650 participants, 55.4% was men while 58.6% of the sample was aged over 60 years. Regarding information level, results showed that only 9.8% was "little" or "not all" informed about their health problem, 61,7% was "enough" informed whereas 28.5% were "very" informed. Statistically significant association was observed between degree of information and age (p=<0.001), family status (p=0.005), education (p=0.001), job (p=0.005) and number of children (p=0.019). In terms of clinical characteristics, statistically significant association was observed between the degree of information and whether patients had other disease or not (p=0.037), whether patients reported adherence to treatment guidelines (p=<0.001). Finally, statistically significant association was observed between the degree of information and relations with nursing staff (p=<0.001), doctors (p=0.007) and other patients (p=0.003), and whether patients faced difficulties in social (p=0.001) and family environment (p=0.002).
conclusionHealth professionals when planning information interventions for orienting hemodialysis patients is increasingly important to evaluate socio-demographic, clinical and other patients ' characteristics and incorporate them in their project.
