Latent profile analysis of electronic health literacy and its impact on health promoting lifestyles among maintenance hemodialysis patients.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: Despite the critical role of e-Health literacy (eHL) in modern healthcare, current research predominantly concentrates on conditions such as cancer and diabetes, as well as outpatient care settings. However, there remains a significant gap in studies specifically addressing the eHL needs of patients with maintenance hemodialysis (MHD). Objective: This study aims to explore the latent categories of eHL among MHD patients and its impact on health-promoting lifestyle (HPL). Methods: A survey was conducted using a convenience sampling method involving 500 MHD patients from three tertiary hospitals in Baoding. Data were analyzed using latent profile analysis (LPA) and a mixed regression model. Results: This study showed that MHD patients could be classified into low (23.17%), middle (49.78%), and high (27.05%) eHL groups, with the three-class model showing optimal fit (AIC = 2321.213, BIC = 2271.168, entropy = 0.967). MHD Patients in the high literacy group scored significantly higher in all dimensions of e-HL and overall HPL (119.58 ± 13.86) compared to those in the low literacy group (91.82 ± 11.73) (all Conclusion: The findings suggest a heterogeneous stratification of eHL among MHD patients, closely linked to HPL. Stratified intervention strategies should be developed for different patient groups to potentially improve their health behaviors. The study provides evidence-based support for personalized health management.
