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

Large randomised controlled trials show no benefit of high intensity renal replacement therapy compared to lower intensity regimens. Previous data suggest large variation in practice. This audit evaluated practices in relation to intensity of replacement therapy in critical care units across the Scottish National Health Service over a 28-day period. The mean delivered weight-adjusted effluent flow rates for continuous veno-venous haemofiltration were 29.1 (8.1 SD) ml kg
