Burn injury mortality in patients with preexisting and new onset renal disease.
Article in American journal of surgery, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionWe sought to examine the impact of preexisting and new onset renal disease on burn injury mortality.
methodsRetrospective analysis of patients admitted to a regional burn center from 2002-2012 was performed. Variables analyzed included demographics, burn mechanism, inhalation injury status, and % TBSA. Poisson regression was performed to estimate risk of in-hospital burn mortality.
resultsThere were a total of 7640 patients over the study period. The adjusted 60-day risk of in-hospital mortality in patients with preexisting renal disease (PRD was 3 times higher compared to patients with no preexisting renal disease (IRR = 3.22, 95% CI = 1.26-8.25). The adjusted 60-day risk of mortality is 2 times higher for patients with new onset renal disease compared to those without (IRR = 2.11, 95% CI = 1.55-2.87).
conclusionPreexisting and new onset renal disease results in a significantly higher risk of mortality following burn injury compared to patients without renal disease. Prevention of new onset renal injury and careful management of patients with preexisting renal disease to prevent exacerbation should be pursued.
