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.

Abstract

backgroundRoutine primary care visits provide an educational opportunity for African-Americans with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and CKD risk factors such as hypertension. The nature of patient-physician discussions about CKD and their impact on CKD awareness in this population have not been well explored.

objectiveTo characterize patient CKD awareness and discussions about CKD between patients and primary care physicians (PCPs).

designMixed methods study. PATIENTS: African-American patients with uncontrolled hypertension (≥ 140/90 mmHg) and CKD (albuminuria or eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m MAIN MEASURES: We assessed patient CKD awareness with questionnaires and audio-recorded patients-PCP discussions during a routine visit. We characterized discussions and used multivariate regression analysis to identify independent patient and visit predictors of CKD awareness or CKD discussions.

resultsAmong 48 African-American patients with uncontrolled hypertension and CKD, 29% were aware of their CKD. After adjustment, CKD awareness was associated with moderate-severe CKD (stages 3-4) (vs. mild CKD [stages 1-2]) (prevalence ratio [PR] 2.82; 95% CI 1.18-6.78) and inversely associated with diabetes (vs. without diabetes) (PR 0.28; 95% CI 0.10-0.75). CKD discussions occurred in 30 (63%) visits; most focused on laboratory assessment (n = 23, 77%) or risk factor management to delay CKD progression (n = 19, 63%). CKD discussions were associated with moderate-severe CKD (vs. mild CKD) (PR 1.57; 95% CI 1.04-2.36) and diabetes (vs. without diabetes) (PR 1.42; 95% CI 1.09-1.85), and inversely associated with uncontrolled hypertension (vs. controlled) (PR 0.58; 95% CI 0.92-0.89). In subgroup analysis, follow-up CKD awareness did not change by presence or absence of CKD discussion (10.5% vs. 7.7%, p = 0.8).

conclusionsIn patients at risk of CKD progression, few were aware of CKD, and CKD discussions were not associated with CKD awareness. More resources may be needed to enhance the clarity of clinical messages regarding CKD and its significance for patients' health.
