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

This study aims to analyze the factors that affect the prognosis of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in elderly patients with acute kidney injury (AKI). Data obtained from 41 elderly patients with AKI who underwent CRRT in our department between January 2001 and December 2010 was retrospectively evaluated in this study. The enrolled patients were 80 to 100 years old, with a mortality of 60.98%. The mean Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) score was 27.8±5.6 points, and the mean risk coefficient was 0.80±0.10. The APACHE II score of the survival group was significantly higher than that of the death group. The comparisons of therapeutic dosages between <25 mL/(kg⋅h) and 25-50 mL/(kg⋅h), and between 25-50 mL/(kg⋅h) and >50 mL/(kg⋅h) all had no statistical significance. The prognosis of CRRT and the number of involved organs were related to the APACHE II score. Logistic regression analysis revealed that the number of involved organ, APACHE II score, mechanical ventilation, and hypoalbuminemia were the major risk coefficients that affected the prognosis of patients with bedside hemofiltration. The turnover of elderly CRRT patients was related to the number of involved organs, APACHE II score, mechanical ventilation, hypoalbuminemia, and other factors. The APACHE II score was the important reference index of CRRT starting time and could predict mortality risk.
