Lived experiences of village-based patients with chronic kidney disease receiving haemodialysis at Mirpur, Azad Kashmir, Pakistan: a transcendental phenomenology study protocol.
Article in BMJ open, 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
backgroundChronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the major health issues in Pakistan, exerting notable effects on both the physical and mental well-being of individuals undergoing haemodialysis. Of particular concern to healthcare professionals is the potential adverse influence of haemodialysis on the lives of patients with CKD residing in rural areas of the country. This study will explore and describe the lived experiences and needs of patients with CKD receiving haemodialysis from the perspectives of patients and their family caregivers. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: Transcendental phenomenological research design will be used. Participants will be recruited from the dialysis centre of a tertiary hospital through purposive sampling based on specific inclusion criteria. In-depth unstructured interviews, observation and document analysis will be the methods for data collection. Data will be analysed using Colaizzi's approach following the transcription of the interviews. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: The study has been approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of Shifa Tameer-e-Millat University, Pakistan (IRB # 0307-23) and written permission was obtained from the administration of the study hospital. Before giving written and verbal consent, all participants will receive detailed information about the study. Participants will maintain the freedom to withdraw from the study at any point. Confidentiality of the participants will be ensured. The study findings will be disseminated to important stakeholders and published in scientific papers and conference proceedings.
