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.

Abstract

backgroundContrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is a common cause of hospital-acquired AKI and a serious complication of percutaneous coronary intervention.

objectiveThe aim of the present study was to assess whether remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) reduces the incidence of CI-AKI.

methodsWe conducted a prospective, randomized, sham-controlled clinical study. The study included 101 patients admitted to the Intensive Cardiac Therapy Clinic of Medical University of Lodz for elective percutaneous coronary intervention. The participants were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either a control group (n = 51) or an RIPC group (n = 50). In the latter, RIPC was achieved before percutaneous coronary intervention by 4 cycles of 5-minute inflation of a cuff on the left upper arm to 200 mm Hg followed by 5-minute deflation. In the control group, a deflated cuff was placed on the left arm for 40 minutes. Serum creatinine concentration was measured to check for the presence of CI-AKI within 48 to 72 hours of percutaneous coronary intervention. Serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin level was also measured within 3 hours.

resultsCI-AKI occurred in 2 patients from the RIPC group (4%) and 3 patients from the control group (5.9%), but the difference was not significant (

conclusionsThe use of RIPC before elective percutaneous coronary intervention was not found to prevent CI-AKI. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03761368. (
