Renal complications and subsequent mortality in acute critically ill patients without pre-existing renal disease.
Article in CMAJ : Canadian Medical Association journal = journal de l'Association medicale canadienne, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
backgroundMost studies of long-term renal outcomes after acute critical illness have enrolled patients with pre-existing renal dysfunction. We assessed renal outcomes in patients who did not have pre-existing renal disease and who were admitted to hospital for acute critical illness.
methodsWe identified adults who did not have pre-existing renal disease and who were admitted to hospital for acute critical illness between 2000 and 2011, from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. Each patient was matched 1:2 with controls without acute critical illness, according to age, sex and index date. A subset was further matched 1:1 with controls using propensity scores. Outcomes included acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease.
resultsWe evaluated 33 613 patients with acute critical illness matched to 63 148 controls, of whom 14 218 were propensity matched to 14 218 controls. Patients with acute critical illness had incidence rates per 10 000 person-years of 9.45 for acute kidney injury, 78.3 for chronic kidney disease and 21.0 for end-stage renal disease. In the propensity-matched cohort, patients with acute critical illness had significantly higher risks of acute kidney injury (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 2.92, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.78-4.77), chronic kidney disease (aHR 1.81, 95% CI 1.57-2.08), and end-stage renal disease (aHR 3.60, 95% CI 2.50-5.18). Acute critical illness conferred higher mortality risk among patients who subsequently developed end-stage renal disease (aHR 3.37, 95% CI 2.07-5.49) or chronic kidney disease (aHR 2.16, 95% CI 1.67-2.80).
interpretationPatients with acute critical illness and without pre-existing renal disease have a higher risk of adverse renal outcomes and subsequent mortality. A resolved episode of critical illness has implications for future renal function surveillance, even in patients without pre-existing renal disease.
