Studies, which included patients with kidney failure choosing non\u2010dialysis care and a comparator group of patients preparing for or receiving kidney replacement therapy, were selected. Exposures included clinical and socioeconomic factors. The outcome was a choice to have non\u2010dialysis care. Random\u2010effects meta\u2010analysis was performed; with subgroup analysis by region.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In total 43 studies, including 51,872 participants, were selected. Female sex was associated with choosing non\u2010dialysis care (pooled OR 1.47, 95% CI 1.26\u20131.71). There was no overall association between non\u2010white ethnicity and treatment choice in Western countries. However, in North America non\u2010White groups had lower odds of receiving non\u2010dialysis care compared to white patients (OR 0.70, 95% CI 0.60\u20130.81). Socioeconomic deprivation was associated with choosing non\u2010dialysis care in Asia, as was low educational attainment (OR 2.85, 95% CI 1.54\u20135.26). There was an overall association between living alone and non\u2010dialysis care (pooled OR 1.55, 95% CI 1.24\u20131.93).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The geographical variation in these results highlights the importance of social and political context in understanding treatment access. We identify living alone and low socioeconomic status as possible predictors of choosing non\u2010dialysis care. This analysis cannot ascertain if these associations arise from appropriate shared decisions, challenges to the decision making process or barriers to accessing kidney replacement therapy. Nevertheless, this review illustrates the interplay of socioeconomic, interpersonal and systemic factors at play and lays the foundation to unravelling these complexities.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jorc.70071","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,4]],"date-time":"2026-07-04T12:56:37Z","timestamp":1783169797000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Global Variation in Predictors of Uptake of Conservative Kidney Management: A Systematic Review and Meta\u2010Analysis"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"52","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9707-7471","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kerry\u2010Lee","family":"Rosenberg","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University College London London UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Naaheed","family":"Mukadam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University College London London UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gordon","family":"Paterson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University College London London UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jemima","family":"Sneddon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Royal Free Hospital NHS Foundation Trust London UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Diane","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Royal Free Hospital NHS Foundation Trust London UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kashif","family":"Anwari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University College London London UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Aine","family":"Burns","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University College London London UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ben","family":"Caplin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University College London London UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0136065"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2215\/CJN.04400419"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.nefroe.2024.07.002"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ndt\/gfac193"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2215\/CJN.03330414"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2190\/OM.63.1.a"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2215\/CJN.00510109"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1561-5413(10)60006-3"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ndt\/gfq630"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ndt\/gfr452"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0021-9681(87)90171-8"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjopen-2023-082386"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41581-024-00863-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/nep.13689"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ndt\/gfac154"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.pec.2023.108124"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/ki.2015.110"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000447097"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1681\/ASN.2017121297"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_21_1","first-page":"574","article-title":"Choosing Not to Dialysis in Chronic Renal Failure in Stage V (Renal Failure).
