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

objectivesContrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is a well-known serious complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and may cause increased morbidity and mortality. We aim to identify the predictive value of Global Registry for Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) risk scores for CI-AKI in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) before primary PCI, allowing pre-procedural decisions regarding prevention therapy for CI-AKI.

methodsWe enrolled 251 consecutive patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI. Receiver operating characteristic curves were used to identify the optimal sensitivity for the observed range of GRACE risk scores. CI-AKI was defined as any of the following: absolute increase in serum creatinine (SCr) of ≥ 0.3 or ≥ 0.5 mg/dL within 48-72 h after contrast exposure, or a percentage increase in SCr level of ≥ 50 %.

resultsForty-three patients (17.1 %) developed CI-AKI0.3, 22 (8.8 %) CI-AKI0.5, and 19 (7.6 %) CI-AKI50. The GRACE quartiles were as follows: Q1 (<136), Q2 (136-159), Q3 (159-180), and Q4 (>180). Patients with high GRACE risk scores had higher risk for CI-AKI0.3, 0.5, and 50 (6.6, 6.6, 23.4, 31.7 %, respectively, p < 0.001; 1.6, 1.6, 9.4, 22.2 %, respectively, p < 0.001; and 3.3, 3.2, 9.4, 14.3 %, respectively, p = 0.009). ROC showed that a GRACE risk score >160 was a fair discriminator for CI-AKI0.3, 0.5, and 50 (C statistic = 0.723, 0.788, 0.668, respectively). After adjusting for potential confounding predictors, GRACE risk score >160 remained significantly associated with CI-AKI0.3 or 0.5 (OR 3.84; 95 % CI 1.61-9.17; p = 0.002, or OR 5.54; 95 % CI 1.42-21.66; p = 0.014), and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (Hs-CRP) >15.5 mg/L was a highly significant predictor of CI-AKI0.3, 0.5, and CI-AKI50.

conclusionsGRACE risk score (>160) and post-procedural Hs-CRP >15.5 mg/L are independent and significant predictors of CI-AKI in patients with STEMI before primary PCI.
