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
backgroundsPatients with End-Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD) receiving Hemodialysis (HD) face significant psychosocial and physical challenges. Improving their resilience by integrating protective factors is important for effectively managing the difficulties associated with the disease and its treatment. This study intended to identify factors associated with resilience among patients with ESKD receiving HD.
methodsA cross-sectional analytical study was done among 143 patients with ESKD receiving HD in a Tertiary Hospital "A" in Nepal. A non-probability convenience sampling technique was used to select samples. Data were collected following ethical approval through face-to-face interviews. A Nepali version of socio-demographic and clinical characteristics-related questions and five standardized and structured instruments were used to measure resilience, family support, illness cognition, self-efficacy, and self-esteem. Data were analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics (i.e., correlation and multiple linear regression) using the Statistical Package for Social Science Software version 16.
resultsThe respondents had intermediate (49.0%), low (27.3%), and high (23.7%) levels of resilience. Illness cognition, self-efficacy, and self-esteem had statistically significant positive associations with resilience. However, age was negatively associated with resilience. These associated variables account for 64.0% of the variance in resilience (Adjusted R
conclusionsThe highest proportion of patients with ESKD receiving HD had an intermediate level of resilience. Factors such as illness cognition, self-efficacy, and self-esteem play an important role in enhancing resilience while advancing age appears to diminish it. Therefore, focusing on enhancing illness cognition, self-efficacy, and self-esteem with special care on older patients may be an effective strategy for improving resilience in patients with ESKD receiving HD.
