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

Acute renal failure (ARF) is a very common condition that may occur in patients with major burn injuries. The majority of burn patients with ARF have a high mortality rate, ranging from 73% to 100%. There are several ways to treat ARF in burn patients, including peritoneal dialysis (PD), intermittent hemodialysis, and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). CRRT is generally used in patients in whom intermittent hemodialysis has failed to control hypovolemia, as well as in patients who cannot tolerate intermittent hemodialysis. Additionally, PD is not suitable for patients with burns within the abdominal area. For these reasons, most patients with unstable hemodynamic conditions receive CRRT. In this study (conducted in our burn unit between 1997 and 2004), six burn patients received CRRT: three received continuous arteriovenous hemodialysis (CAVHD) and the other three received continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CVVH). The patients were all males, with a mean age of 49.8 years (range, 27-80 years), and a mean burnt surface area of 65.1% (range, 30-95%). Four patients died due to multiple organ failure, and two patients recovered from severe ARF. CRRT has been proven safe and useful for burn patients with ARF. According to this study, we conclude that CVVH is an appropriate tool for treating ARF, with a lower incidence of vascular complications than CAVHD.
