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

The elderly are at high risk for acute kidney injury (AKI). With the aging of the population, the demand for intensive care unit (ICU) admission from older patients will continue to rise, and this clinical entity will likely become increasingly common. In this article we review the relevant literature, discuss the age-related changes that render older people prone to AKI development, and examine the most frequent etiologies for renal impairment in these patients. We also consider the difficulties in achieving an early diagnosis in the elderly ICU patient, the particularities related to AKI treatment in this age group, and the data available on differences in renal recovery and mortality between the young and the old with renal injury. More importantly, we highlight the methods for prevention of AKI development or worsening in the elderly critically ill patient.
