Urinary cast is a useful predictor of acute kidney injury in acute heart failure.
Article in Scientific reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with poor prognosis among patients with acute heart failure (AHF). Early documentation of impaired kidney function through simple examination may provide risk reduction in such patients. The present study aims to reveal an association between cellular casts and hospital-acquired AKI in AHF. This study included patients with AHF who underwent urinalysis, including urinary sediment analysis within 24 hours post admission. AKI was defined as an increase of ≥0.3 mg/dL within 48 hours or ≥1.5 times in serum creatinine level in contrast to baseline creatinine level. In this study, 114 patients with AHF (age, 75 ± 14 years; male, 59.7%) were included. Of them, 40 (35%) developed hospital-acquired AKI. Cellular casts were detected in 30 patients (26%) prior to AKI development and related to hospital-acquired AKI in the multivariate logistic regression analysis (odds ratio, 2.80; 95% confidence interval, 1.04-7.49; P = 0.041). In conclusion, cellular casts are observed occasionally in patients with AHF and potentially useful markers for development of AKI during hospitalization.
