Patient-centered interventions to enhance peritoneal dialysis utilization in Saudi Arabia.
Article in Saudi medical journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesTo apply a patient-centered care approach to enhance peritoneal dialysis (PD) utilization by proposing patient-centered interventions (PCIs) based on chronic kidney disease patients' perspectives on the advantages and disadvantages of dialysis modalities.
methodsA cross-sectional study was carried out between November 2023 and May 2024 to collect data from 423 patients from different regions across Saudi Arabia.
resultsThe study revealed that ensuring high safety during dialysis sessions was the most valued advantage among 43.2% of the participants, whereas the inability to travel was the most significant disadvantage. The duration of the dialysis session was identified as a potential hidden factor deterring patients from choosing PD. Based on participants' perspectives, various PCIs were proposed to enhance PD utilization, including providing assisted automated PD, investigating traveling restrictions of PD, and starting a new development line focusing on decreasing the duration of the PD session or reducing the time required for the patient to be connected to the PD device.
conclusionRegardless of the dialysis modality, safety and travel were the issues that mattered most to patients. Thus, researchers and policymakers may address these issues to contribute to the enhancement of PD utilization.
