Acute kidney injury in patients with Kawasaki disease.
Article in Pediatric research, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 papers.
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.
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
backgroundKawasaki disease was well known for coronary artery abnormalities with few reports of incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI). Our aim was to identify the rate of AKI in patients with Kawasaki disease and its associated factors.
methodsAll patients with Kawasaki disease admitted to a medical center from February 2004 to August 2014 were evaluated. Data collection included serum creatinine level, serial echocardiography reports, white blood cell count, C-reactive protein level, alanine transaminase level, urine white blood cell count, and renal ultrasound reports if available. AKI was defined when a patient's serum creatinine level was higher than 1.5 times upper limits of age-specific serum creatinine levels.
resultsThis cohort study included 332 patients (191 boys and 141 girls; aged 0.12 to 11.3 y, median 1.39 y) and 93 patients (28%) of them had AKI. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that age and alanine transaminase level were significantly associated with AKI (odds ratio (OR): 0.521, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.377-0.718, P < 0.001, and OR: 1.003, 95% CI: 1.000-1.005, P = 0.017, respectively).
conclusionThis study demonstrated that AKI exists in substantial proportion of patients with KD. Young age and high alanine transaminase level are the main associated factors for AKI in these patients.
