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

backgroundThe application of third-generation hydroxyethyl starch (HES) solutions in critically ill patients suffering from aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) was often part of the treatment of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). However, there is increasing evidence showing a correlation between the application of HES and the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI).

methodsIn a single-center retrospective analysis including 81 patients without a preexisting renal disorder suffering from aSAH who had received higher volumes of 6 % HES 130/0.4 due to standard treatment of DCI, the incidence of AKI during intensive care unit (ICU) stay was recorded using AKIN criteria. Furthermore, the course of serum creatinine after discharge from ICU was observed.

results6 % HES 130/0.4 was given over a period of 12.9 ± 7.1 days resulting in a cumulative dose of 12543.2 ± 7743.6 mL. Four patients (4.9 %) fulfilled AKIN criteria stage 1 during ICU stay. In two of these patients, serum creatinine was within normal range again on day of discharge. Five patients showed elevated levels of serum creatinine within 1 to 22 months after hospitalization. A correlation between the amount of HES given and the incidence of AKI could not be found.

conclusionThe application of 6 % HES 130/0.4 did not lead to an elevated incidence of AKI in patients without an elevated baseline serum creatinine. However, there is still a lack of high-level evidence as prospective randomized trials are missing yet.
