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

rationaleAnuria is a severe symptom indicating severe kidney damage. Patient recovery from prolonged anuria is rarely reported. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 15-year-old boy received gender- and weight-mismatch heart transplantation (HT) due to dilated cardiomyopathy. He developed severe hypotension, and heart failure 24 hours after surgery, which were relieved by preload reduction treatments. Although, routine examinations did not show any abnormalities in renal function before surgery, anuria occurred 4 days after preload reduction treatments (24-hour urine volume was 23 mL). DIAGNOSIS: The patient was diagnosed with acute kidney injury (AKI).

interventionsHe was admitted to continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) or hemodialysis. OUTCOMES: Surprisingly, his urine volume was gradually, and miraculously, restored to more than 1000 mL/24 hours after over 300 days of anuria. Hemodialysis was not needed in the twentieth month after surgery. Moreover, he partially, recovered renal function. LESSONS: This case indicates the likelihood of recovery from long-term anuria.
