Effective method for life-style modifications focused on dietary sodium intake in chronic kidney disease: sub-analysis of the FROM-J study.
Article in BMC nephrology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundLifestyle modifications by educational sessions are an important component of multidisciplinary treatment for chronic kidney disease (CKD). We attempted to identify the best method to teach these modifications in order to ensure their acceptance by patients and investigated its effectiveness in CKD practice.
methodsThis study is a post-hoc analysis of the FROM-J study. Subjects were 876 CKD patients in the advanced care group of the FROM-J study who had received lifestyle modification sessions every 3 months for 3.5 years. Two-hundred and ten males (32.6%) and 89 females (38.2%) showed success in sodium restriction. In this study, we examined factors affecting sodium restriction in these subjects.
resultsSubjects received three or more consecutive educational sessions about improvement of salt intake. The median salt-intake improvement maintenance period was 407 days. The number of dietary counseling sessions (OR 1.090, 95%CI: 1.012-1.174) in males and the number of dietary counseling sessions (OR 1.159, 95%CI: 1.019-1.318), CKD stage progression (OR 1.658, 95%CI: 1.177-2.335), and collaboration with a nephrologist (OR 2.060, 95%CI: 1.073-3.956) in females were identified as significant factors improving salt intake. The only factor contributing to the maintenance of improved salt intake was the continuation of dietary counseling (p = 0.013).
conclusionAn increased number of educational sessions was the only successful approach for males to implement and maintain an improved salt intake. Providing the resources for continuous counseling is beneficial for lifestyle modifications and their maintenance in the long-term management of CKD. Continuous counseling for lifestyle modifications is highly cost-effective.
