Application of the new classification criteria of the Acute Kidney Injury Network: a pilot study in a pediatric population.

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
The purpose of our study was to apply the new classification criteria proposed by the Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN) in a pediatric population and to determine the clinical characteristics, laboratory features and outcomes of acute kidney injury (AKI) in a tertiary pediatric nephrology center in Turkey. Patients' charts from January 2003 to August 2008 were retrospectively evaluated. One hundred patients (55 male; 45 female) were enrolled. Median age at the time of AKI was 7 years (range 1 month-18 years). Patients' AKI was classified according to the staging system as follows: 25% stage 1, 36% stage 2 and 39% stage 3. The etiology of AKI was bone marrow transplantation related in 27%, renal disease in 14%, dehydration in 10%, nephrotoxic medication in 8%, cardiac surgery related in 8%, and congenital anomalies in 2%. Multiple etiologic factors with underlying chronic diseases were present in 31% of the patients. Dialysis was needed in 45% of the patients. Mortality rate was 33%. Dialysis need and mortality rate were higher in stage 2 and stage 3 patients, with a more favorable prognosis in stage 1 patients. Mortality rate was higher in patients that had undergone cardiac surgery and in those with multiple etiologic factors. The proposed AKIN staging successfully reflected the course of patients with AKI. The underlying cause of AKI seemed to be an important risk factor for death.
