Non-Medical Barriers in Access to Kidney Transplantation: Perspectives from Dialysis and Transplant Center Staff Across Four US Regions.

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
Understanding regional variation in early transplant access informs tailored interventions. Two comparable surveys assessed perceived access barriers among dialysis and transplant center staff across New England, New York, U.S. Southeast, and Ohio River Valley (August 2021-October 2023). Among 630 dialysis and 34 transplant staff/centers, dialysis staff most often cited patient disinterest (48.75%), transportation challenges (44.75%), and lack of support (37.87%). Transplant staff cited lack of support (74.35%), non-adherence (52.36%), and disinterest (49.03%). Dialysis staff ranked disinterest highest in New York and Ohio River Valley, and transportation challenges highest in the Southeast and New England. Transplant staff ranked anxiety/fear about the transplant process highest in New York, and lack of support highest elsewhere. Regionally tailored strategies are needed to improve access.
