Non-adherence to hemodialysis, perception of the illness, and severity of advanced nephropathy.

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
introductionHemodialysis (HD) is a complex therapy that imposes several changes in the patient's life. Failure to follow therapy recommendations is called non-adherence (NA). The patient's illness perception, severity of chronic kidney disease, and individual strategies for coping with HD can have an impact on NA to the demands of therapy.
methodsThis was a cross-sectional study with end-stage renal disease patients on conventional HD in Salvador, Bahia. We evaluated attendance to treatment and interdialytic weight gain (IDWG) as parameters of NA to HD, and investigated its association with clinical aspects and measures of disease perception (illness effects questionnaire - IEQ) and severity of nephropathy (end stage renal disease severity index - ESRD-SI), by analyzing Pearson or Spearman correlation.
results79 patients were evaluated, 57% male, aged 53.1 ± 12.3 years, with length of HD of 108 (89 - 131.5) months. Age correlated with ESRD-SI (r = 0.43) and NA parameters: negative correlation with relative IDWG (r = -0.41) and reduction in sessions (r = -0.31) and positive correlation with %HD performed (r = 0.25). The scores on the IEQ and ESRD-SI showed a positive correlation (r = 0.44; p <0.001), but did not show any correlation with the analyzed NA parameters.
conclusionsWe did not find a correlation between illness perception and severity index of advanced nephropathy with the behaviors of NA to chronic HD. In this study, age correlated both with the perception of severity of advanced nephropathy and the parameters of NA to chronic HD.
