Update on acute kidney injury in the neonate.

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
purpose of reviewAcute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with increased risk of morbidity and mortality in critically ill children and adults. Neonates remain an understudied group, although previous evidence suggests that this association holds true for them as well. RECENT
findingsAttention to the issue of neonatal AKI is increasing. New studies in very low-birthweight infants, infants with congenital heart disease who undergo cardiopulmonary bypass, those who receive extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and infants with perinatal depression continue to demonstrate that AKI is common in neonates and associated with increased risk of morbidity and mortality. Additional advances in the field of neonatal AKI include adaptation of modern, categorical AKI definitions, as well as further evaluation of novel urinary biomarkers (e.g., neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin) in this patient group. SUMMARY: AKI is an independent risk factor for poor outcomes in critically ill neonates. Our ability to improve outcomes for these patients depends on heightened awareness of this issue both at the bedside as well as in research, commitment to using standardized AKI definitions in order to pool and compare data more effectively and improvement in our diagnostic methods with better AKI biomarkers so that we can identify AKI and intervene much earlier in the disease course.
