Prevalence of chronic kidney disease and associated risk factors among people living with HIV in a rural population of Limpopo Province, South Africa.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Background: Limited evidence informs on the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in people living with HIV (PLWH) in South Africa. Thus, this study aimed to determine the prevalence of CKD and its associated risk factors among PLWH within the rural province of Limpopo, South Africa. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study of 143 participants, subdivided into groups of PLWH ( Results: The prevalence of CKD was approximately 7% in PLWH. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that it was only diabetes mellitus (odds ratio of 5.795, 95% confidence interval, Conclusion: Chronic kidney disease was prevalent in PLWH, and it was further associated with cardiovascular risk factors, diabetes, and ageing. As PLWH age, the burden of CKD may be increased with the increase in cardiovascular-related comorbidities such as diabetes.
