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
objectiveSocial performance-the ability to successfully engage in social interactions-impacts outcomes in end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), including depressive symptoms and low self-efficacy, that are disproportionately experienced by Black Americans. However, the associations between social performance and health behaviors in ESKD are unknown. Social-emotional expertise (SEE) is a construct of individual differences in social performance that may be relevant to ESKD outcomes. Study goals are to establish the relation between SEE and health behaviors in Black American patients with ESKD by (a) examining the association of SEE with depressive symptoms, self-efficacy, and trust-in-physician and (b) the prediction of medication nonadherence and serum phosphorus by SEE.
methodNinety-nine Black Americans receiving in-center hemodialysis completed surveys at baseline and two follow-up visits over 12 months. Bayesian regression captured relations among self-efficacy, depressive symptoms, medication nonadherence, serum phosphorus, and SEE scale scores.
resultsSEE was positively associated with self-efficacy and negatively associated with depressive symptoms at baseline. Additionally, baseline SEE significantly predicted 12-month medication nonadherence (
conclusionsHigher perceived social performance-as measured by the SEE scale-predicted self-efficacy, depressive symptoms, and medication nonadherence, but not serum phosphorus control, in a cohort of Black Americans with ESKD. Socially focused interventions may have a positive impact on health behaviors among Black patients with ESKD. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2026 APA, all rights reserved).
