Typologies of Symptoms and Functions Among Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease and Population Characteristics: A Latent Profile Analysis.
Article in Nursing open, 2026. 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
aimsTo explore the latent classification of symptom distress and functional impairments in Chinese patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and analyse the influencing factors of different latent classes.
designA cross-sectional survey study.
methodsData were collected from a public tertiary hospital in Shanghai, China, between December 2023 and January 2024. Data collection was performed with the use of the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System -29 Profile V2.1. Latent Profile Analysis and a multinomial logistic regression model were employed to identify subgroups among patients.
resultsThe results indicated three distinct subgroups of symptom distress and functional impairments among patients: Profile 1-'moderate to severe symptom distress and moderate to severe functional impairments' (29, 13.9%), Profile 2-'low symptom distress and no functional impairments' (134, 64.1%) and Profile 3-'no symptom distress and no functional impairments' (46, 22.0%). Various socio-demographic factors, such as age, payment methods, daily care by myself, anaemia, diabetes and disturbance of phosphorus metabolism, demonstrated significant associations of these factors with membership in the latent profiles (p < 0.05).
conclusionThis study identified three symptoms and functional impairment profiles in patients with CKD and the predictors of the profile membership. These findings highlight the need for personalised interventions for patients with CKD. IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PROFESSION AND/OR PATIENT CARE: Early identification of high-risk patients with CKD who experience moderate to severe symptom distress and functional impairments is crucial. Providing targeted interventions, including financial and daily care support, as well as managing comorbidities such as diabetes, anaemia and disturbances in phosphorus metabolism, is essential for achieving effective outcomes.
