Prevalence and associations of chronic kidney disease among antiretroviral therapy-naïve persons living with HIV in Lagos, Nigeria.
Article in BMC nephrology, 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
backgroundChronic kidney disease (CKD) affects almost 10% of the global populace including people living with HIV (PLWH). PLWH acquire CKD from both traditional and HIV-specific CKD risk factors. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of CKD and associated factors among antiretroviral therapy (ART) naïve PLWH in Lagos, Nigeria.
methodsThis is a secondary data analysis among adult (≥ 18 years) ART-naïve PLWH enrolled at a large ART clinic in Lagos over 6 years. CKD was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFR) below 60ml/min/1.73m
resultsAmong 2 772 PLWH, the mean age was 38 years with males older than females (p < 0.001). The majority of participants were females (62.1%), married (54.8%), employed (85.7%), had underweight or normal body mass index (BMI) (62.2%), and were diagnosed with World Health Organization (WHO) clinical stages 1 and 2 (55.5%). The age- and sex-standardised prevalence of CKD ranged from 10.0 - 17.6% with the highest Spearman's correlation (0.928) observed with MDRD and CKD-EPI equations. Increasing age [AOR (95% CI), equation] was significantly associated with CKD across all equations [1.09 (1.06 - 1.13), BSA-CG; 1.07 (1.05 - 1.10), MDRD; 1.09 (1.06 -1.12), CKD-EPI]. Other variables associated with CKD [AOR (95% CI), equation] were anaemia [2.50 (1.34 - 4.68), BSA-CG; 1.73 (1.04 - 2.86), MDRD], BMI <25 kg/m
conclusionThere was a high prevalence of CKD among ART-naïve PLWH at enrollment, which highlights the need to evaluate this population for CKD. Aside increasing age and low CD4 counts, none of the traditional or HIV-specific risk factors were related to CKD diagnosis.
