Interventions Incorporating Therapeutic Alliance to Improve Hemodialysis Treatment Adherence in Black Patients with End-Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD) in the United States: A Systematic Review.
Review in Patient preference and adherence, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundIn the US, Blacks with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) have a four-fold higher prevalence rate of hemodialysis treatment and higher subsequent rates of hemodialysis treatment nonadherence and hospitalization compared to their White peers. Nonadherence to prescribed dialysis therapy is an underestimated life-threatening behavior, because of its association with increased morbidity and mortality. Few studies have specified and systematically evaluated targeted methods of increasing hemodialysis treatment adherence among Black hemodialysis patients with added focus on therapeutic alliance, a rewarding patient-centered relationship between patients and providers, based on common goals and objectives. This review seeks to evaluate the state of the science to determine the salience of a therapeutic alliance for the development of effective interventions positively impacting hemodialysis treatment adherence among Black patients.
methodsMedline (via PubMed), Embase (OvidSP), Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL; EBSCOhost), and PsycInfo (ProQuest) databases were used to search for abstracts with the keywords "dialysis", "therapeutic alliance", and "treatment adherence and compliance", including all underlying index terms and alternative variations of terms, in order to cover the entire scope of the field. Only randomized clinical trials and pre/postintervention studies published in the previous 10 years (2009-2019) and including a proportion of Black patients >25% were included for review.
resultsOnly three intervention studies met these criteria, for a total aggregated sample of 130 - mean age 58.1 years and 53% female. None of these studies was composed exclusively of Black patients (range 62%-91.3%), nor did they present data specifically for Blacks. Despite the lack of robust data informing strategies to improve hemodialysis adherence among Blacks with ESRD, a limited number of intervention studies have reported positive effects on hemodialysis attendance. DISCUSSION/
conclusionFurther research is warranted to fill this significant gap in our understanding of theoretically based, therapeutic alliance-enhanced, and culturally tailored hemodialysis treatment-adherence interventions among Blacks.
