Review in Nature reviews. Nephrology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03353389 (Review of Trend in Incidence and Characteristics of Hospital-acquired Acute Kidney Injury in Hospital Selayang), which is not on this map. Cited by 405 papers, 6 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

Abstract

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a widespread problem of epidemic status. Compelling evidence indicates that the incidence of AKI is rapidly increasing, particularly among hospitalized patients with acute illness and those undergoing major surgery. This increase might be partially attributable to greater recognition of AKI, improved ascertainment in administrative data and greater sensitivity of consensus diagnostic and classification schemes. Other causes could be an ageing population, increasing incidences of cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease (CKD), and an expanding characterization of modifiable risk factors, such as sepsis, administration of contrast media and exposure to nephrotoxins. The sequelae of AKI are severe and characterized by increased risk of short-term and long-term mortality, incident CKD and accelerated progression to end-stage renal disease. AKI-associated mortality is decreasing, but remains unacceptably high. Moreover, the absolute number of patients dying as a result of AKI is increasing as the incidence of the disorder increases, and few proven effective preventative or therapeutic interventions exist. Survivors of AKI, particularly those who remain on renal replacement therapy, often have reduced quality of life and consume substantially greater health-care resources than the general population as a result of longer hospitalizations, unplanned intensive care unit admissions and rehospitalizations.
