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: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) face challenges in managing their nutritional needs. Understanding the knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) regarding medical nutritional therapy among these patients is crucial for improving outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the KAP regarding medical nutritional therapy among patients with CKD. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted between September 1, 2022 and September 1, 2023 among patients with CKD. Patients' KAP concerning medical nutritional therapy were assessed, and structural equation modeling (SEM) was utilized to analyze the interrelationships among these KAP dimensions. Results: A total of 481 valid questionnaires were analyzed, including 254 (52.81%) males, and 329 (68.40%) were in stage 5 CKD. The knowledge, attitude, and practice scores were 6.16 ± 2.85 (possible range: 0-12), 31.68 ± 3.96 (possible range: 8-40), and 35.6 ± 9.99 (possible range: 11-55), respectively. Spearman correlation analysis revealed significant positive correlations between knowledge and attitude ( Conclusion: Patients with CKD exhibited inadequate knowledge, positive attitude, and passive practice. Targeted educational interventions are essential to enhance patients' understanding of medical nutritional therapy for CKD.
