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

introductionPatients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) frequently undergo multiple angiographic studies within a 48-h period. We sought to evaluate the impact of these repeated contrast loads on renal function.

methodsWe reviewed the records of a consecutive series of 104 patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, most of whom underwent at least an initial CT angiogram and digital subtraction angiography. Six patients had baseline renal disease. Initial creatinine levels were compared to maximum levels over a subsequent 48-h period after their last angiographic study. We defined contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) as an increase in creatinine of at least 0.3 from baseline.

resultsThe mean change in creatinine following treatment was 0.05 ± 0.23, with three patients developing CIN (2.9%). In 2 cases of CIN, the creatinine increase was inconsequential (0.39 and 0.44). All patients with CIN had an early return of their creatinine to baseline; none required dialysis or suffered permanent sequelae as a result of these creatinine increases. There was no statistically significant difference in the rate of CIN in patients treated with microsurgical clipping (n = 85) as compared to those who underwent coiling (n = 19).

conclusionOur results underscore the relative safety of the usage of multiple angiographic studies performed in patients with aneurysmal SAH, particularly in patients without baseline renal disease.
