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

For decades, when contrast agents are administrated, physicians have been concerned because of the risk of inducing acute kidney injury (AKI). Recent literature questions the existence of AKI induced by contrast, but animal studies clearly showed harmful effects. The occurrence of contrast-associated AKI was likely overestimated in the past because of confounders for AKI. Several strategies have been investigated to reduce contrast-associated AKI but even for the most important one, hydration, there are conflicting data. Even if the occurrence rate of contrast-associated AKI is low, AKI is related to worse outcomes. Therefore, besides limiting contrast agent usage, general AKI preventive measurements should be applied in at-risk patients.
