Impact of adherence to CKD-MBD guidelines on mortality among Japanese dialysis patients: an ecological study.
Article in Journal of bone and mineral metabolism, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionThis study evaluated the association between prefecture-level achievement of chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) parameter targets and mortality in Japanese dialysis patients. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe conducted an ecological study of all prefectures in Japan using data from the Japanese Society of Dialysis Therapy and National Vital Statistics between 2016 and 2017. We calculated adherence rates to recommend target ranges for CKD-MBD parameters, including phosphate, corrected calcium, and parathyroid hormone (PTH), and explored associations of these rates with prefecture-specific standardized mortality rates (SMRs) among the general population and among prevalent dialysis patients using bivariate association analysis and structural equation modeling.
resultsPrefecture-level adherence to the target phosphate range was significantly and negatively associated with prefecture-specific SMRs in men (standardized estimate (β) = - 0.61, p < 0.001) and women (β = - 0.41, p < 0.001). However, prefecture-level adherence to the target corrected calcium range was significantly and negatively associated with prefecture-specific SMRs only in men (β = - 0.28, p = 0.01). Meanwhile, prefecture-level adherence to the target PTH range was significantly and positively associated with prefecture-specific SMRs in men (β = 0.23, p = 0.04). Prefecture-level SMRs of females in the general population had a significant impact on prefecture-level SMRs of female dialysis patients (β = 0.27, p = 0.03). The models explained 52% of variance in SMR for men and 33% for women.
conclusionA higher prefecture-level achievement rate of the target phosphate range recommended by the Japanese CKD-MBD guidelines was associated with a lower prefecture-specific SMR in the Japanese dialysis population.
