1 · What the graph read from it

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.

Abstract

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) impacts more than 800 million people. It causes significant suffering and disproportionately impacts marginalized populations in the United States. Kidney palliative care has the potential to alleviate this distress, but has not been tested. This pilot study evaluates the feasibility of a randomized clinical trial (RCT) testing the efficacy of integrated kidney palliative and CKD care in an urban safety-net hospital. Methods: This is a single-site pilot RCT designed to enroll 85 participants, with a goal of at least 60 completing the study. The inclusion criteria are adults 18 or older, who are either Spanish or English speakers, have an estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) of ≤30 mL/min/1.73 m Discussion: This pilot RCT will provide essential data on the feasibility of testing integrated palliative care in CKD care in an underserved setting. These outcomes will inform a larger, fully powered trial that tests the efficacy of our kidney palliative care approach. Clinical trial registration: NCT04998110.
