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

objectiveImprovements in the health care system, resulted in a greater number of geriatric patients diagnosed with acute kidney injury (AKI). We evaluated the incidence and outcome of AKI in octogenarians, as studies in the Middle-East region are few; moreover, treatment approaches, in addition to medical decisions, may require special consideration for advanced age to improve the outcomes.

resultsAt King Abdullah II teaching and referral hospital, we recruited patients aged 80-90 years who were admitted to the medical floor between January 2010 and December 2013. Patients were followed-up for at least 1 year after discharge.850 patients were admitted during the study period. Of these, 135 were excluded from our analysis. The most common admission diagnoses were uncontrolled diabetes mellitus and acute coronary syndrome. AKI occurred in 216 patients (30.2%). Using the acute kidney injury network classification; stage 1, stage 2, and stage 3 disease were present in 59, 17.5, and 23.5% of patients, respectively. Of the 115 patients who died before discharge (16.1%), 87 (75.6%) had developed AKI. Hypertension, the use of angiotensin receptor blockers and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, heart failure, and exposure to radiologic contrast media were significant risk factors for AKI.
