Black Patients Equally Benefit From Renal Genetics Evaluation but Substantial Barriers in Access Exist.
Article in Kidney international reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Introduction: Genetic testing is increasingly accessible to patients with kidney diseases. Racial disparities in renal genetics evaluations have not been investigated. Methods: A cohort of patients evaluated by the Cleveland Clinic Renal Genetics Clinic (RGC) from January 2019 to March 2022 was analyzed. Results: Forty-eight Black patients, including 27 (56.3%) males, median age 34 (22-49) years and 232 White patients, including 76 (32.8%) males, median age 35 (21-53) years, were evaluated. Black patients were more likely to have end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) at the time of referral compared with White patients (23% vs. 7.3%, Conclusion: Black patients equally benefit from renal genetics evaluation, but barriers to access exist. Steps must be taken to ensure equitable and early access for all patients. Further studies investigating specific interventions to improve access are needed.
