Effectiveness of integrated care on delaying chronic kidney disease progression in rural communities of Thailand (ESCORT study): rationale and design of the study [NCT01978951].
Trial report in BMC nephrology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01978951 (Effectiveness of Integrated Care on Delaying Chronic Kidney Disease Progression in Rural Communities of Thailand), which is not on this map. Cited by 10 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
backgroundIn developing countries, accessibility to specialists, and physician to patient contact time is limited. In Thailand, A unique community health service is provided by subdistrict health care officers and Village Health Volunteers (VHVs). If the personnel were trained on proper chronic kidney disease (CKD) care, CKD progression would be delayed. METHODS/
designWe conducted a community-based, cluster randomized controlled trial at Kamphaeng Phet Province, located about 400 kilometers north of Bangkok. Two out of eleven districts of the province were randomly selected. Approximatly 500 stage 3-4 CKD patients from 2 districts were enrolled. Patients in both groups will be treated with standard guidelines. The patients in intervention group were provided the additional treatments by multidisciplinary team in conjunction with community CKD care network (subdistrict health care officers and VHVs) which will provide group counseling during each hospital visit and quarterly home visits to monitor dietary protein and sodium intake, blood pressure measurement and drug compliance. Duration of the study is 2 years. The primary outcome is the difference of rate of eGFR decline. The secondary outcomes are laboratory parameters and incidence of clinical endpoints such as mortality rate and cardiovascular events, end-stage renal disease (ESRD), etc. DISCUSSION: Insights of this study may set forth a new standard of community-based CKD care.
