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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionManaging dialysis at home requires the involvement of the patient in decisions, treatment, and their illness and health. Evidence-based person-centered care interventions focus on listening to the patient's narrative, establishing a partnership between patients and healthcare professionals, and documenting care and treatment in a shared health plan. Therefore, a person-centered care intervention is expected to enhance the patient's ability to manage dialysis at home. This study aimed to identify and map evidence for person-centered interventions and home-based dialysis for individuals with kidney failure.

methodsA scoping review was conducted based on the approach of Arksey and O'Malley. A systematic search was carried out in Medline, CINAHL, and Scopus for articles in all languages and without time restrictions. Person-centered care interventions concerning home dialysis were included. Two independent researchers assessed the literature. Data were extracted using NVIVO, and a relational analytical framework was employed to synthesize the data.

resultsThe search identified 9,443 articles, of which 16 met the inclusion criteria. A total of 13 person-centered care interventions were identified. Eight interventions aimed to involve the patient in the decision regarding the type of dialysis modality, with six interventions identified to involve the patient in treatment, illness, and health. Only one intervention was identified to involve the patient in the decisions that follow once the patient has commenced dialysis treatment. Five interventions showed a correlation between a person-centered care intervention and the number of patients in home dialysis.

conclusionThere is a need for interventions for patients in home dialysis to be adapted to a more person-centered care approach, particularly regarding the involvement of the patient in their treatment, illness, and health, as well as the decisions that follow the initiation of dialysis treatment.
