Lactate measurements accurately predicts 1-week mortality in emergency department patients with acute kidney injury.
Article in Turkish journal of emergency medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
backgroundStudies on prognostic indicators in patients with acute kidney injury are limited. This study investigated 1-week mortality, laboratory and clinical parameters according to the lactate levels in patients with acute kidney injury.
methodsIn this cross-sectional study, we compared the lactate levels on admission and follow-up in emergency department with vital findings, laboratory parameters, and 1-week mortality.
resultsData of 3375 patients examined; 2681 patients excluded and 694 patients were included. Median lactate level on admission was 1.6 (1.1-2.5) mmol/L for patients who discharged from emergency department, 2.2 (1.3-3.4) mmol/L for patients admitted to the hospital wards, 3.7 (1.7-7.2) mmol/L for patients admitted to the intensive care unit and 4.4 (2.4-8.0) mmol/L for patients with mortality within 1-week of ED presentation. Mortality was 30.4% in patients with high lactate levels and 8.1% in patients with normal lactate levels on admission. (
conclusionsElevated lactate level predicts 1-week mortality in patients presenting with acute kidney injury in emergency department. Elevated lactate level were associated with poorer vital signs and abnormal laboratory results.
