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

Pregnancy-related acute kidney injury (Pr-AKI) remains a large public health problem, with decreasing incidences in developing countries but seemingly increasing incidences in the United States and Canada. These epidemiologic changes are reflective of the advances in medical and obstetric care, as well as changes in underlying maternal risk factors. The risk factors associated with advanced maternal age, such as hypertension, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and those associated with reproductive technologies such as multiple gestations, are increasing. Traditional causes of Pr-AKI, such as septic abortions and puerperal sepsis, have been replaced by hypertensive diseases, such as preeclampsia and thrombotic microangiopathies comprising thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS). In this review, we discuss the global impact of Pr-AKI on maternal and fetal outcomes, the predominant etiologies, and key clinical features to distinguish diagnoses, such as preeclampsia/hemolysis elevated liver function test and low platelet (HELLP) syndrome, acute fatty liver disease of pregnancy (AFLP), and other thrombotic microangiopathies. New insights into the pathogenesis of preeclampsia, TTP/aHUS, and AFLP that have unearthed possible therapeutic targets are summarized. We also delve into special consideration needed to give to pyelonephritis and postobstructive causes of Pr-AKI. With each diagnosis, we offer the latest treatment recommendations, such as the positive reports from the use of eculizumab to treat aHUS. In the end, we hope to arm the clinician with the best tools to understand and address this morbid problem that does not seem to be disappearing.
