Kidney Disease Knowledge and Its Determinants Among Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease.
Article in Journal of patient experience, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
The alarming rise in the incidence of end-stage renal disease in Nigeria is likely to continue if patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) lack knowledge of this disease, its management, and practices to support effective self-management. The study aimed to assess CKD knowledge and to investigate its predictors. A cross-sectional survey was conducted using a paper-based questionnaire at the medical and nephrology outpatients' clinics of a secondary and tertiary hospital in Maiduguri. The study enrolled 220 patients with CKD stages 1 to 4. Sixty-five percent of the participants had poor CKD knowledge. The patients who had a tertiary level of education were significantly more likely to have higher CKD knowledge compared to those with no formal education (adjusted odds ratio: 2.62, 95% CI: 1.20-5.72). The study shows that the majority of the participants had poor CKD knowledge. Tertiary educational level was the only significant independent predictor of higher CKD knowledge. Therefore, targeted educational interventions are needed among patients with no or low formal education to be able to support them with self-management behaviors.
