Incidence and risk factors of nephrotoxicity in patients on colistimethate sodium.
Article in International journal of clinical pharmacy, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background Colistin is used to treat gram-negative infections but it's highly associated with nephrotoxicity. Objectives To determine the incidence and risk factors as well as mortality in patients on colistin. Setting Sultan Qaboos University Hospital, Muscat, Oman. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study of patients admitted and who received colistin for ≥ 48 h. The exclusion criteria included inhaled colistin therapy, cystic fibrosis, or pregnancy. The study period was from January 2010 to June 2016. Main outcome measures Nephrotoxicity using the Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss and Endstage kidney disease (RIFLE) criteria. The secondary outcomes were incidence, risk factors and mortality in patients on colistin. Results A total of 123 patients were included. Colistin-associated nephrotoxicity (CAN) occurred in 57 (46%) patients after colistin therapy. As per the RIFLE criteria, 22 (18%) patients were classified as 'at risk', 17 (14%) as 'injury', and 18 (15%) as 'failure'. Multivariate analysis indicated that increasing age (adjusted odds ratio (aOR), 1.03; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.01-1.06; p = 0.004) and higher APACHE II score (aOR 1.08; 95% CI 1.01-1.16; p = 0.040) were significant predictors for the development of nephrotoxicity. Factors associated with mortality included ICU admission (aOR 23.3; 95% CI 5.04-106; p < 0.001), vasopressin use (aOR 5.54; 95% CI 1.56-19.6; p = 0.008) and higher APACHE II score (aOR 1.15; 95% CI 1.03-1.30; p = 0.027). Conclusions The incidence of CAN was 46%. Increasing age and higher APACHE II score were the risk factors for CAN. Factors associated with mortality at 28 days included ICU admission and higher APACHE II score.
