Uptake and Outcomes of Peritoneal Dialysis among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People: Analysis of Registry Data.
Article in Kidney international reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Introduction: Peritoneal dialysis (PD) enables people to use kidney replacement therapy (KRT) outside of healthcare-dependent settings, a strong priority of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Methods: We undertook an observational study analyzing registry data to describe access to PD and its outcome as the first KRT among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people between January 1, 2004 and December 31 2020. Results: Out of 4604 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, reflecting 10.4% of all Australians commencing KRT, PD was the first KRT modality among 665 (14.4%). PD utilization was 17.2% in 2004 to 2009 and 12.7% in 2016 to 2020 ( Conclusion: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who utilized PD as their first KRT during 2004 to 2020 recorded a higher peritonitis rate than the current benchmark of 0.4 episodes/patient-years. The cure rates have worsened recently, which should be a big concern. There is an exigent need to address these gaps in kidney care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
