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

backgroundAlthough recovery of renal function after an episode of acute kidney injury (AKI) is an important clinical measure of morbidity, predictors of withdrawal from renal replacement therapy (RRT) among AKI patients remain unclear.

methodsIn this single-center retrospective cohort study, we examined the clinical records of AKI patients requiring RRT who were hospitalized in the ICU or general wards at our hospital from January 2010 to December 2013. A priori-determined covariates of age, sex, cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease (CKD), mean arterial pressure (MAP), sepsis, nephrotoxic agents, and hypoalbuminemia were assessed in Cox hazard models to estimate hazard ratio (HR).

resultsA total of 334 patients were enrolled (median age, 68 years; interquartile range [IQR], 57-77 years; male, 71.6%). During follow-up 157 (47.0%) patients achieved RRT withdrawal. Multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed that CKD, MAP between 95 and 105 mmHg and MAP ≥ 105 mmHg, compared with MAP between 65 and 75 mmHg, ventilator use and hypoalbuminemia, were significantly associated with RRT withdrawal.

conclusionAmong patients with AKI requiring RRT, CKD, ventilator use, hypoalbuminemia, and high MAP were associated with RRT withdrawal. Furthermore, keeping a higher MAP at RRT initiation can potentially lead to dependence on RRT.
