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

Introduction: Patient self-management is critical for health outcomes for individuals with dialysis-dependent kidney failure. Latino populations with dialysis-dependent kidney failure have identified key barriers to self-management, including lack of tailored and patient-centered education, and social needs and challenges with health system navigation. Community health worker (CHW) interventions have been effective in reducing health disparities and promoting self-management; however, they have not been used for Latino individuals with dialysis-dependent kidney failure. To address these disparities, we describe adaptation of Navigate-Kidney, a CHW intervention for Latino individuals with hemodialysis-dependent kidney failure. Methods: We used a community participatory approach with implementation science (IS) methodologies and retroactive framework application to guide intervention selection, adaptation, and evaluation of a CHW intervention for Latino individuals with hemodialysis-dependent kidney failure. Data sources included cross-sectional surveys, semistructured interviews, and field observations. Results: Our needs assessment informed the selection and adaptation of a conservative care management-focused CHW intervention for Latino populations with dialysis. The feasibility of the adapted intervention (Navigate-Kidney) was evaluated in a single-arm clinical trial among 40 Latino individuals with dialysis-dependent kidney failure. Postintervention, participants and clinicians reported a need to prioritize support for social needs and health navigation, patient-centered education, and self-management. A randomized controlled trial (RCT), adapted to address these needs demonstrated significant improvement in interdialytic weight gain (IDWG), a surrogate marker for diet self-management. Conclusion: We describe the adaptation of the Navigate-Kidney, a CHW intervention for Latinos with dialysis-dependent kidney failure. IS methodologies can improve effectiveness and uptake of interventions, thereby reducing kidney health disparities.
