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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsAcute kidney injury (AKI) became an important cause of mortality and morbidity in critically ill children, despite advancement in its management. In developing countries etiology of AKI are different from that of developed countries. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis observational study was carried out in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) in 2 months to18 years of critically ill children. Kidney injury was defined and categorized by the pRIFLE criteria.

resultsOut of 361children, 86 children (23.8%) developed AKI at some point during admission, 275 children (age and sex matched) who did not develop kidney injury during hospitalization served as non-AKI children. Maximum cases of AKI were seen in 1-5 years of age. Maximum children of AKI were of viral encephalitis (n = 43, 50.0%) followed by scrub typhus (n = 14, 16.3%). Risk factors for the development of AKI were shock, PRISM score and longer hospital stay. In our study the mortality in AKI children (n = 30, 34.8%) was significantly higher (

conclusionAKI is common in critically ill children and associated with high mortality and morbidity. HOW TO CITE THIS ARTICLE: Bharat A, Mehta A, Tiwari HC, Sharma B, Singh A, Singh V.
