Psychosocial considerations and recommendations for care of pediatric patients on dialysis.
Review in Pediatric nephrology (Berlin, Germany), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Dialysis treatment has evolved to enable children to live longer and transition to adulthood. Thus, the focus of care shifts to a consideration of pediatric patients' quality of life and psychosocial functioning across childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood. Despite well-documented concerns in various domains (including depression/anxiety, self-esteem and social functioning, behavior problems, and academic and cognitive functioning), limited literature exists regarding psychosocial guidelines for children and adolescents undergoing dialysis. This article aims to address this gap by providing a review of the pediatric literature examining psychosocial functioning in patients treated with dialysis, as well as recommendations for specific psychosocial concerns. Overall recommendations for care include screening for anxiety and depression, referral to pediatric psychologists for evidence-based intervention, utilization of child life specialists, opportunities to promote social functioning, neuropsychological evaluation and school programming, ongoing support in preparing for transition to adult care, and periodic measure of quality of life. Together, these suggestions promote a holistic approach to patient-centered care by supporting both physical and psychosocial well-being.
