Dietary Protein Intake in CKD: Quantity and Quality.
Review in Clinical journal of the American Society of Nephrology : CJASN, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
An intensive management, including nutritional interventions, is crucial for reducing mortality and improving outcomes in patients with CKD. Dietary protein reduction has been a key strategy in CKD management since the 1930s, when specialized diets were used to treat uremic symptoms. Research has shown that excessive protein intake exacerbates kidney damage, while a controlled protein intake reduces metabolic toxins and their harmful effects. Evidence indicates that animal proteins contribute to the production of uremic toxins; in contrast, a plant-based diet offers numerous benefits as long as the sources are combined to ensure a complete essential amino acid profile. This review explores the optimal protein intake for patients with CKD, focusing on the quantity and quality of dietary proteins and the optimal way to ensure a sustained compliance over time.
