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

backgroundEldecalcitol (ELD) is an active vitamin D MATERIALS AND

methodsWe retrospectively reviewed the medical records at our hospital for cases of hypercalcemia-induced AKI between April 2013 and February 2018. Among them, we focused on patients who developed AKI secondary to ELD-induced hypercalcemia.

resultsAmong 69 patients who developed hypercalcemia-induced AKI, 32 patients (46.4%) developed AKI associated with ELD-induced hypercalcemia. Their mean age was 82 ± 5 years, 97% of them were female, mean corrected serum calcium level was 12.2 ± 1.5 mg/dL, serum creatinine level was 2.5 ± 2.2 mg/dL, and estimated glomerular filtration rate was 23.9 ± 14.4 ml/min/1.73 m

conclusionsPrescribers of ELD should regularly monitor serum calcium levels and kidney function to prevent hypercalcemia and AKI associated with ELD and pay more attention to concomitant drugs especially magnesium oxide.
