Risk of falls in people with chronic kidney disease and related factors.
Article in Revista latino-americana de enfermagem, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveto identify the risk and prevalence of falls in the last year in chronic renal failure patients on hemodialysis; to associate the risk of falls with the fear of falling and socio-demographic-clinical variables.
methodassociation study. 131 individuals participated in the study. The Morse Falls Scale, the Fall Efficacy Scale and the Tilburg Frailty Indicator were used. The data were analyzed by linear regression, the level of significance adopted was 0.05.
results97.7% were at risk for falls and 37.4% had at least one fall per year, with a mean of 2.02. Extreme concern about falling was presented by women, patients with less education, amputees, and frail individuals. Diabetes, as a comorbidity, and people with difficulty or need for assistance for ambulance showed a significant increase in the occurrence of falls.
conclusionhigh risk and high prevalence of falls were found in hemodialysis patients, greater in those with diabetes or mobility limitations. Fear of falling was identified especially in women and in people with less education. These findings challenge the role of preventing falls, both in hemodialysis sessions and in the adoption of strategies for activities of daily living that involve patients and their families.
