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 incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) among the neonates treated at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit is high with high mortality rates. Glutathione S-transferase (GST) class Pi plays an important role in the protection of cells from cytotoxic and oncogenic agents. The aim of the study was to examine whether the levels of serum glutathione S-transferase Pi (GST Pi) determined after birth have any predictive value for the outcome and development of AKI in premature neonates.

methodsThe prospective study included 36 premature neonates. The data about morbidity was gathered for all the neonates included in the study. The blood samples were taken in the first 6 h of life and GST Pi levels were measured.

resultsThe mean values and standard deviations of GST Pi among the neonates who died and who survived were 1.904 ± 0.4535 vs 1.434 ± 0.444 ng/ml (p = 0.0128). Logistic regression revealed a statistically significant, positive correlation between GST Pi levels and death (p = 0.0180, OR7.5954; CI 1.4148-40.7748).The mean value of GST Pi levels in the neonates with AKI was higher than in neonates without AKI (p = 0.011).

conclusionsThe conclusion of our study is that high levels of serum GST Pi in the first 6 h after birth are associated with an increased mortality and development of AKI in prematurely born neonates.
