Review in The Clinical biochemist. Reviews, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06595420 (Kidney Function in People With Cystic Fibrosis in the Era of HEMT), which is not on this map. Cited by 14 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent complication in hospitalised patients and is diagnosed by urinary output and serum creatinine. Serum creatinine is an indirect marker for renal glomerular filtration, but lacks specificity for damage to kidney tissue and the relatively late response to injury precludes early recognition of AKI. Timely diagnosis of kidney injury using biomarkers that provide information about the aetiology of kidney injury is an unmet clinical need. To overcome the suboptimal performance of serum creatinine, injury biomarkers have been proposed that predict AKI in diverse clinical settings. The clinical performance of these markers is considered moderate due to the lack of specificity for kidney tissue or the underlying injury mechanisms, poor test specificity and confounding by interventions or comorbidities. Hence, it is not unequivocally beneficial to implement current kidney injury biomarkers in the clinical laboratory for diagnostic purposes. In this article we review biomarkers that might fulfil AKI-related unmet clinical needs in the academic hospital setting.
