Brazilian Dialysis Survey 2024.
Article in Jornal brasileiro de nefrologia, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
introductionThe annual Brazilian Dialysis Survey (BDS) plays an important role in informing and shaping national health policies.
objectiveTo present the 2024 epidemiological findings from the BDS conducted by the Brazilian Society of Nephrology (BSN) and compare them with previous years.
methodsA survey was conducted among Brazilian chronic dialysis centers through voluntary participation, utilizing an online questionnaire to assess clinical and epidemiological characteristics of dialysis patients, as well as dialysis center attributes. For specific estimates of prevalence, incidence, and funding source, a nationally representative random sample of dialysis centers stratified by geographic region was selected (n = 258).
resultsA total of 386 dialysis centers (42.7%) voluntarily responded to the online questionnaire, and 162 centers from the randomly selected centers provided data. On July 1st, 2024, the estimated number of dialysis patients was 172,585, with 52,944 new patients starting dialysis in 2024. The estimated prevalence and incidence rates per million population (pmp) were 812 and 249, respectively. Among prevalent patients, 87.3% were undergoing hemodialysis, 7.1% hemodiafiltration, and 5.6% peritoneal dialysis. Compared to the previous year, there was an increase in catheter use for hemodialysis vascular access, along with higher prevalence rates of anemia, hyperphosphatemia, hyper-kalemia, and low Kt/V. The estimated crude annual mortality rate was 16.5%.
conclusionsData from a random sample of dialysis centers indicate a continued rise in the number and prevalence of chronic dialysis patients in Brazil. Worsening trends in permanent vascular access, dialysis adequacy, and metabolic control underscore the need for targeted improvements in patient care.
