Questionnaire survey of the frequency of dietary intake during hemodialysis and the impact of COVID-19 in Japan.
Article in Clinical and experimental nephrology, 2024. 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
backgroundThere have been no coherent reports on the effects of dietary intake during hemodialysis in Japan. Furthermore, few studies have reported the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on them. This study aimed to investigate dietary intake during hemodialysis and its impact on the spread of COVID-19.
methodsThis consecutive cross-sectional study included a survey of all hemodialysis facilities in the Niigata Prefecture. The survey form was sent via e-mail or fax.
resultsFifty four facilities (98%) responded to the 2018 survey. Twenty-eight facilities (52%) provided meals, with 18% of all patients undergoing dialysis and 41% of patients undergoing nocturnal dialysis consuming meals during hemodialysis. In the 2020 survey, the number of facilities decreased to 17 (33%), and the number of all patients undergoing dialysis and nocturnal dialysis consuming meals decreased to 13% and 32%, respectively. In the 2022 survey, the number of facilities decreased to 14 (27%), and the number of all patients undergoing dialysis and nocturnal dialysis decreased to 9% and 19%, respectively.
conclusionThe COVID-19 pandemic has caused a decrease in both facilities serving meals and patients' food consumption during hemodialysis. To prevent the loss of meal opportunities, establishing safe methods for food intake and alternatives in hemodialysis facilities is necessary.
