Prevalence of Chronic Kidney Disease in People Living With HIV Following in Dammam Medical Complex, Saudi Arabia.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
Backgrounds People living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) are at a greater risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) compared to people not having HIV. Evaluating the prevalence of CKD in people living with HIV in Dammam, Saudi Arabia was the main objective of this study. Methods This cross-sectional study included adult HIV patients who were followed at Dammam Medical Complex. The patients' demographic data, comorbid conditions, and HIV history were reviewed from their electronic medical records. Results A total of 729 patients were counted. The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of 235 patients could not be estimated. The data for the remaining 494 patients were analyzed. The cohort consisted of 406 male patients (82.19%) and 88 female patients (17.81%). The mean ± standard deviation for the patients' age and HIV duration were 39.08±10.93 years and 4.37±3.15 years, respectively. Ten patients (2.02%) had a GFR of <60 mL/min/1.73 m
